Charles “CJ” Wert Jr., 30, of Nazareth, PA, passed away suddenly on Thursday September 21st, 2023.
CJ was born on January 11th, 1993, in Nazareth PA. He was the son of Charles Wert (Kristi) & Mary Ann (Moyer) Wert, all of Nazareth PA. CJ was a 2011 graduate of Nazareth Area High School. CJ was a CNA for many years before he followed in his grandfather’s footsteps at Victaulic in Forks Township. CJ was a core room machine operator and held the friendships he made there close to his heart. CJ’s caring nature and sense of humor lit up any room he entered.
