George Acklen Stouff's Obituary
George Acklen Stouff, on March 13th, at the age of 73 years, went home with his Lord and Savior Jesus after battling Leukemia and Lymphoma for several years. Born in Upper Darby Twp, PA, he graduated from Riverside High School, The College of New Jersey (formerly Trenton State College), and Rowan University (formerly Glassboro State College).
Jesus was his first love, then his precious family, friends and students.
He is survived by his wife, Linda, of 46 years, who he met while teaching at Delran Middle School. He was blessed with five daughters/spouses and partners: Jessica Moyer (Eric), Lee-Anne Stouff (Chris), Katrina Thaler (Chris), Rebecca Stouff (Bob), Sarah Stouff, and two grandsons, Harlo and Emmett Thaler, who brought him much joy. He is also survived by his sister, Donna Karmade; cousin, Dee DiFilippo; his sisters and brothers -in-law, Gail and Keith Czyzk, Deborah Leonard, Gary and Terri Gordon; and his cherished nieces and nephews.
George taught and coached in Delran for 27 years, then retired to serve at The King’s Christian School in Cherry Hill as principal, teacher, mentor and coach. He loved seeing his students succeed, but more importantly, that they knew how much they were loved by Jesus. He loved sharing his love for Jesus and impacted many lives, he is deeply missed by all that knew him.
