Stanley Jacob Sobkowicz

March 16, 1951 - April 1, 2017

Stanley Jacob Sobkowicz, 66, a recent resident of Mint Hill who moved here last September, died unexpectedly on April 1, 2017, at the CMC Medical Center, Pineville Campus. Stan was born in Bergen County, New Jersey, on March 16, 1951, the son of Jacob and Claire Deziak Sobkowicz. He grew up in Washington Township in New Jersey, attending Iona College in New York before attending International School of Law (now George Mason University) where he obtained his JD. Stan enjoyed doing many things in life. Not only did he work as an attorney, he also worked for a time on Capital Hill, worked in the service department for a Toyota dealership, and most recently, enjoyed the career he always aspired to, teaching high school for the Fauquier County School District in Virginia. When not working, Stan loved to spend time with his ham radio interest, riding his Harley, bowling, RC cars, and enjoying his second amendment rights. Most of all, however, Stan loved the time spent with family and friends. Whether learning karate alongside his son or simply spending time with good friends, Stan lived life and enjoyed it to the fullest. He was a special man with a unique spirit and he will be sadly missed by all who knew him. Stan is survived by his partner of 22 years and wife of 12 years, Esther; his children: Steven Sobkowicz and Kristen (husband Joseph) Seaford and their child Charleston; Esther’s son David Ramey and Esther’s daughter, Sherry (husband Chandler) Patterson; and his sister, Janet Sobkowicz of Washington Township, NJ. He is further survived by numerous other relatives and friends. Stan was preceded in death by his parents. A service to honor and celebrate the life, love and blessing of this wonderful man is being planned for Saturday, April 29, 2017 at Lowe Neddo Funeral Home at 12PM.
