de l'athlétisme (il est également une vedette de la course à pied et un joueur de baseball) se poursuit dans le monde des affaires. En tant qu'ami de K. C. Irving, le fondateur de Irving Oil, Charlie gère la première station-service de l'entreprise à Saint John. Son nom « Charles I. Gorman » figure bien en évidence sur la façade de la station-service. Dans la conjoncture économique difficile des années 1930, le nom de Gorman permet d'attirer une nouvelle clientes dans trois des premières stations-service de l'entreprise. Charlie gère ces stations-service Irving jusqu'à que sa santé se dégrade et qu'il doive être hospitalisé.
En 1940, Charles I. Gorman décède à l'âge de 42 ans. Les photographies de son cortège funèbre montrent des milliers d'habitants de Saint John endeuillés massés le long des rues pour venir dire un dernier adieu à Charlie, leur propre superhéros.
