Charlotte was born September 26, 1919 in Greeley, Colorado to Charles Ovid and Isabella Plumb, she grew up the oldest of six sisters and learned how to farm at an early age. Of course that was with horses and a hoe for weeding the crops. She went to college in Greeley, becoming a teacher, then marrying a farmer. She continued to farm, raising four children, teaching and volunteering for many activities in and around the Elbert community. When she decided it was time to stop driving a car, she bought a John Deere gator with an enclosed cab and bucket seats. Several friends rode with her as she sped across the bumpy pastures and out to the mailbox to get her mail. She attended the Elbert Presbyterian Church until moving to an assisted living apartment at the Valley House in Castle Rock. Her many friends and family remember her quick wit and funny stories. She will be missed.
Survived by her sister, Agnes Weinstein, daughters, Maylois Fraley-Ferguson and Carol Vonfeldt, three grandchildren, five great grandchildren, and many nieces and nephews. Preceded in death by her parents, four sisters, her husband, Hugh Mundy, two sons, Hugh Mundy Jr., David Mundy and daughter, cousin Bob Horton and son-in-law, William Fraley.
