Charlott was born on August 25, 1951, in Fort Dix, New Jersey, to Arthur B. Richmond and Hildegard D. Richmond. Throughout her life, she was known for her kind and generous spirit. She truly had a heart of gold and had a special way of making everyone around her feel loved and cared for.
Charlott shared 47 years of marriage with her beloved husband, Tim King. Together, they built a life filled with love, family, and countless cherished memories. One of Charlott’s favorite pastimes was fishing with Tim, and she treasured the simple moments they spent together.
For 22 years, along with her husband Tim, Charlott was the proud owner of HydraFab Manufacturing. Her dedication and hard work were an important part of her life and reflected the determination and care she brought to everything she did.
Charlott’s greatest joy was her family. She loved spending time with those closest to her and especially treasured the time she shared with her grandchildren and great-grandchildren. She also had a deep love for her dogs, who held a very special place in her heart.
A devoted Christian, Charlott had been a member of Concord Baptist Church since 1991. Her faith was an important part of her life and was reflected in the love and kindness she showed to others.
Charlott is survived by her daughter, Christina Bates and husband Geoff; her sister, Faith Gunter and husband Bobby; her grandchildren, Taylor Johnson and husband Nathan, and Caleb Bates and wife Erica; her nephew, Robby Gunter; and her five great-grandchildren, Graysen, Chase, Andrew, Wrenley, and Ellie.
She was preceded in death by her beloved husband of 47 years, Timothy King; her parents, Arthur B. Richmond and Hildegard D. Richmond; and her sister, Roselind Collins.
Charlott will be remembered for her loving heart, her devotion to her family, and the warmth she brought into the lives of those who knew her. Her greatest legacy is the love she gave so freely—a love that will continue to live on through her family and all those whose lives she touched.
She will be deeply missed and forever loved.
