Charles R. Fogg, age 78, passed away suddenly at his home on Saturday, March 11, 2006. Born in Mannington, he was the son of the late C. Raymond and Anna C. Fogg. Charles was a life long area resident.

Mr. Fogg had been a vegetable farmer in Mannington for over 60 years. He was commended by the Asparagus Council for designing and building a machine to plant asparagus roots and also assisted in designing and modifying the prototype of the first feasible mechanical harvester for asparagus.

Charlie loved spending happy times with his family and enjoyed hunting, fishing and gardening. He also enjoyed solving mechanical challenges and was truly a home grown “engineer.”

He is survived by his loving wife of 56 years, the former Betty R. Roeske; his two children Charles R. Fogg III of Lindenwold and James E. Fogg of Mannington; and three grandchildren, Kristen J. Fogg, Jacqueline M. Fogg and James C. Fogg.
