Charles Raymond Gaylord, Jr., son of Dorothy R. Mohr (née Cissel) and Charles R. Gayleard, passed away in his hometown of Baltimore, Maryland on Thursday, May 9, 2024. He was the devoted husband of 50 years to the late Dorothy Emma Gaylord (née Trott). His children, Charles R. Gaylord, III, Stephanie F. Green, and the late Catherine T. Baxley, and grandchildren, Tabitha Baxley, James Baxley, Ashley Gaylord, Theresa Gaylord, Melissa Gaylord, Dylan Green, Kai Green, Ryan Green, and Tyler Green, were his pride and joy. He was the loving brother of Darlene Saffran and Carmen Larmatina and predeceased sisters: Mary Johnston, Catherine Saffran, Rose Beadenkopf, and Nancy Schafferman, and is survived by a large extended family and many friends, including the staff and residents of the DePaul House Senior Living Community where he resided for the past 17 years. Charles's sense of humor and lightheartedness will be sorely missed by all who knew him.
A Graveside service will take place on Saturday, May 18, 2024 at Druid Ridge Cemetery starting at 11 AM.
