Charles G. Hackworth

December 31, 1940 – August 12, 2026

Dear Friends,

It is with heavy hearts, but with the hope and assurance we have in Jesus Christ, that we share the passing of Charles “Charlie” Hackworth, beloved husband, father, grandfather, friend, and co-founder of Hackworth Reprographics, Inc.

Charlie lived a life rooted in faith, family, service, and hard work. Alongside his wife, Dorothy, and their son, Charles II, he helped establish Hackworth Reprographics in 1991. Over the decades, his leadership and commitment to serving others helped shape Hackworth into the company and family it is today.

But Charlie’s greatest legacy extends far beyond business. His Christian faith guided his life and his service to his family, church, community, and people around the world. While we deeply mourn his passing, we rejoice in knowing that Charlie is now home with his Father in Heaven.

The Hackworth family is grateful for the prayers, friendship, and support of our employees, customers, vendors, and community throughout the years. Charles Hackworth II will continue leading the family business and carrying forward the values and legacy established by his parents.

Please keep Dorothy, Charles, David, and the entire Hackworth family in your prayers in the days ahead.
