Charles Barger
January 6, 1932 — November 5, 2013
Mr. Charles P. “Jim” Barger, 81 of Ijamsville died on Tuesday, November 5, 2013 at Frederick Memorial Hospital. He was the husband of Jane B. Barger.
Born on January 6, 1932 in Ednor, MD, he was the son of the late Oliver and Myrtle Barger.
Jim began his long career in banking in 1949 with Suburban National Bank in Silver Spring, MD. He worked in branch banking with Suburban Trust Company and Suburban Bank in Montgomery County and ended his 42 year association with this bank in 1991, retiring as a Sr. Vice President and Regional Commercial Loan Officer.
Active in many community and banking associations during his long career, Jim joined the Board of Washington Adventist Hospital in 1977 and also the Board of Shady Grove Adventist Hospital in 1979. As a member of the Adventist HealthCare (AHC) Board of Trustees, Jim served as Chair of the Finance Committee and continued as an active member of the Finance Committee as a Director Emeritus.
Raised in the country, Jim rode his pony over the Sandy Spring/Olney area as a kid which led to his love of horses and foxhunting.

After a serious foxhunting accident in 1996, he continued the ‘chase’ by hill topping in his red GMC Jimmy.
