Charles E. Leiphart, of Windsor, joined his Lord and Savior Jesus Christ on Thursday, December 2, 2021 at 11:58 am after a short stay with Hospice and Community Care in Mount Joy. He is the husband of Doris D. (Tomlinson) Leiphart of Windsor. Born in Brogueville on December 11, 1930 to the late Earl and Rachel I. (Altland) Leiphart, Charles graduated from Red Lion and went on to serve in the United States Marines. He transferred to the Navy to become a pilot, and developed a love for flying that followed him all of his life. When his service ended he answered the call of God to preaching and evangelism, earning a Bachelor's Degree from Toccoa Falls College in Georgia and becoming a pioneer pastor. Charles started three churches and preached and served in many others. After retiring at the age of 65, he started a door-to-door tract evangelism ministry in which he personally delivered the Gospel to over half a million homes in the region.
