John E. Jackson On Monday, November 30, 2020, John E. Jackson passed away suddenly at his home at the age of 67. John was born on April 25, 1953 in Cheyenne, Wyoming to Bernadette (nee Perotto) and the late Charles Jackson, Sr. As a young child John lived in several states following his father’s orders for the United States Air Force. Once settled his family settled in PA, John graduated from Methacton High School and went on to study audio and sound engineering in New York City. John demonstrated a passion for music and even traveled with the band “Egdon Heath”. While he was touring, John met the love of his life, Gloria, at the Avalon Hotel in Avalon, NJ. They married on March 29, 1980 and shared 17 wonderful years together before Gloria’s passing in 1997. John was a devoted husband, dear father to Kristin Jackson (Johnathon Mohr), brother to Victor Jackson, Sr., Charles Jackson, Jr. “Chip”, and Julie Wagar (Jack), beloved uncle to Victor, Jr., Shelly, the late Jacob, Victoria, Chloe, Caroline, Justin, and Angelina, great uncle to Rue, and friend to many. He is also survived by his beloved “granddogs” Dusty and Attila, who he loved to shower with yummy treats and belly rubs. John was welcomed into heaven by his loving wife, Gloria (nee Parenti) and his daughter, baby Jennifer. In 1959 John’s father opened the doors to the famous “Charlie’s Pizzeria”, which moved its permanent location in Swede Square Shopping Center in 1963. Just before getting married, John and Gloria took over the family business and created a legendary family favorite pizzeria. Whether you wanted a slice of their famous Red Top pizza or a juicy cheesesteak, you could always count on being greeted with John’s smile and typically a witty joke! Although with his big sense of humor, he possessed a deep desire for success and motivation to the best he could be. John possessed a heart of gold and a gentle but firm way of mentoring and bringing out the best in others. John was known for his immense generosity both personally and professionally as he was always willing to lend a helping hand to those in need and support worthwhile causes. Charlie’s Pizzeria was honored by the PA State House of Representatives for outstanding service to the community and has been recognized with Best of Philadelphia and Montgomery County Awards multiple times. This just touched the surface of his achievements and legacy. John left an everlasting impression on his family and patrons and he will truly be missed.

This place no longer exists. Has been closed since 2020. When this place was open. They had more of a sweet pizza sauce and used American cheese on some of their pizzas. It was a good mix up from the other shops. Sadly after the lockdown restrictions from COVID were over they weren't able to recover and have not been open since before lockdown of the COVID pandemic.

The BEST standard Pizza in a 20 mile radius. What a pie! I have been coming here for decades. Currently closed for a death in the family. I am rooting for them to get back in business soon. Your customers are sorry for your loss and miss you guys.

For well over 30 years Charlie’s Pizza has been my go to. My vote will always remain the number ONE Place for that pizza craving.
Charlie's makes some amazing pizza. Their cheesesteak pizza might be one of the best if not the best cheesesteak pizzas in the Philly/suburbs area. I only wish they would take some time to clean up the place once in a while. There are some areas where it is caked with dust.
