GALTZ: Charles Galtz. It is with heavy hearts that we announce the passing of our beloved uncle, Charles Galtz, on Tuesday, Aug. 22, 2023, at the age of 96. He leaves behind a legacy of love, kindness and cherished memories that will forever live on in the hearts of those who knew him. “Charlie,” as he was known by his family and friends, is survived by his adoring and devoted nieces, Carol E. Levy and Louise D. Levy, and his nephew, Steven N. Levy. He was a loving great-uncle to his seven grand-nieces and -nephews, Chloe, Camryn, Chace, Cassidy, Carly, David and Bradley, who were his pride and joy. Charlie was the beloved son of the late Louis and Eva Galtz, the adored brother of the late Lois G. Levy, and brother-in-law of the late Dr. Marshall S. Levy. Throughout his life, Charlie touched the hearts of everyone with his kindness, selflessness, generosity, gentle happy nature, and unwavering love and devotion to his family. After serving as a Naval seaman in the U. S. Navy from 1945-1947, with honorable discharge, he will be remembered for having worked tirelessly as the president of his family’s department store on Penn Avenue, American Wholesale, that he helped grow over the years.
