Charlotte and Gayle were not only mother and daughter, they were best friends and spent most afternoons together.  Charlotte loved all her family and loved to spend time with them. A very kind, loving, generous woman, her laugh was contagious and you could hear it a mile away.  She had a great sense of humor. She loved to have fun and would never miss a gathering of any kind.  She was a hardworking woman all of her life, one who enjoyed going to work and spending time with her work family.  She was Pete Mockler’s (QC) legal secretary for 40 years and had a wonderful working relationship together.

Charlotte was an avid member of Journey Wesleyan Church on Duncan Lane in Fredericton. She so loved her friends there and enjoyed any services that she was able to attend. Charlotte was loved by everyone who had the wonderful opportunity to meet her.  She was a very special lady to so many!

Gayle would like to thank all of Charlotte’s Windsor Court Family.  Charlotte received excellent care over the past year from all of the Windsor Court Staff and she made lasting friendships with many of the staff and residents.

Visitation will take place on Friday, January 31^st, 2025 from 12 – 2 pm, at McAdam’s Funeral Home.  Her service will be immediately following in the J.A.
