On Thursday, May 4, 2023 at his home, Charles (“Jack”) Merrill Ford, born on January 5, 1937 and formerly of Hampden, MD, left us for Heaven.

He attended North Carroll Assembly of God, loved spending time in his Bible and sharing the Gospel of Jesus Christ, as well as dabbling with fixing and building things.
