Charles E. Scharwarth

Charles peacefully passed away on Tuesday, October 11, 2022, at his Ponchatoula home surrounded by his loving family.  He was a talented carpenter for many years, who took great pride in his work, so much so, that some would call him a perfectionist.  Charles enjoyed hunting, fishing, manicuring his yard as well as playing cards and hanging out with his buddies.  He was a busy body with many hobbies, but he loved spending time with his family and harassing his wife, Phyllis.  Charles will be missed dearly by all who knew him.

He is survived by his wife of 53 ½ years, Phyllis Saltzman Scharwarth; daughter, Samantha Stone and husband Chad; grandchildren, Sabrina Stone and Lauren Stokes; sister, Evelyn Berteau and husband Sherwood; his furbaby, Girl; as well as numerous nieces, nephews and extended family.

Preceding Charles in death are his parents, Charles and Annie Scharwarth; sister, Annabelle Stanga; and an infant son.

Family and friends are invited to attend the Memorial Service on Sunday, October 16, 2022, at Harry McKneely & Son Funeral Home in Ponchatoula at 12:00 p.m. with visitation beginning at 10:00 a.m. Pastor Ted Strain of Greater Life Apostolic Church in Carriere, MS, will officiate the Memorial Services.

Arrangements have been entrusted to Harry McKneely & Son Funeral Homes.
