CURRENT CELEBRATIONS

Charlotte Eager

You never had to guess what Charlotte was thinking: she was direct to a fault. She had been taught how to cook by a neighbor when she was young and never lost the flair: her family ate well, especially spaghetti and meatballs. She loved to cheer for the Phillies and from years of watching her son play, she had the knowledge to watch intelligently. Of course, if it wasn’t going well for them, she’d shut the T.V. off and walk away. She volunteered her time working the Treasure Trove at the Masonic Home and was a member of the Eastern Star. If her T.V. was on, she’d be checking out old game shows and the Hallmark Channel and she enjoyed a little Candy Crush. If she left the area, it was most likely to head down to the casinos to battle the slots. Earlier years found her working as an administrative assistant for adult probation and she worked for some years at Heals Farm Market. She was a graduate of Burlington High School and previously lived in Burlington Township before moving to Delanco.
In High School she’d meet a handsome boy. She and the late Richard shared a 62-year marriage blessed by three children: Sherry (Peter) Spezzano, JoAnn Newell and Steven (Susan Davis); and later by grandchildren, Pete (Lisa), David, Stacy (Mike), and Jillian and great-grandchildren, Vincent, Giovanni, Aurora, Vivienne, and Penelope.
Family will celebrate 86 great years privately. Memorial donations to The Cat’s Meow Rescue (catsmeownj.org) will be appreciated.
