Charles Swope Obituary

We are sad to announce that, on March 20, 2026, at the age of 80, Charles Swope (Barnegat, New Jersey) passed away. Leave a sympathy message to the family on the memorial page of Charles Swope to pay them a last tribute.

He was predeceased by: his parents, Charles, Sr. Swope and Eva Duffey Swope. He is survived by: his children, Nancy (David Black) and Christopher (Jessica); his siblings, Ann Scullion and John Swope; and his grandchildren, Lillian Eleanor (Lily), Penelope Eva (Penny), Dave and Toby.

Grandchildren include Lillian Eleanor (Lily) and Penelope Eva (Penny). And missing Dave the most is Toby, the other best dog ever who was his constant companion through the COVID-19 lockdowns and beyond.

In lieu of flowers, contributions can be made to the New Jersey Maritime Museum (NJMM.org).
