Christopher Wolk Obituary
Born in Philadelphia, he was the son of the late Stanley J. Wolk and Mary (Fedarko) Wolk.
Christopher worked for Betz for 15 years and then at Merck for 17 years as a chemist before his retirement. He was a very active, outdoor enthusiast when he was not working. He was a motorboater and enjoyed deep sea fishing on his Carolina Classic called "Reel World" from Cape May, NJ out to the canyon. He enjoyed taking care of his salt water aquariums at his home, where he was a coral reef keeper and had various salt water fish as a salt water aquarist. Christopher liked to go exploring at National Parks with his family, and even enjoyed winter camping and ice climbing on Mt. Washington in Vermont. He had his scuba license and enjoyed deep sea diving. Christopher also like riding motorcycles in his younger years, and even had his airplane pilot's license.
Surviving along with his wife Jennifer, are his two sons Garvey Wolk and Matthew Wolk.
A memorial service will be planned and announced at a later date.
In lieu of flowers, memorial contributions may be made to the American Cancer Society (https://www.cancer.org/) in Christopher's name.
