Charlotte was a paralegal for 53 years. She was a member of the 1957 Norview Ladies Alumni Group, and the First Families of Tennessee (French Family). She also loved word searches, reading novels and listening to music, like Elvis and Vince Gill. She cherished her animals, especially Sasha. The Phantom of the Opera was her favorite musical. In her early days she loved eating out at her favorite restaurant, El Rodeo, on Virginia Beach Blvd in Norfolk.
Charlotte loved helping to raise her only granddaughter and cherished every moment they spent together. She wrote that her proudest family achievement was Elisabeth graduating from law school in 2014, although she was too sick to attend.
She is survived by her son Ronald Wright of Norfolk; granddaughter Elisabeth Wright Davis and her husband Kyle of Virginia Beach, VA; Elisabeth's mother and stepfather Dawn and Phil and family; caretaker Jaronda Fuller and family, and many other loved ones.
The family would like to give special thanks to Grace Hospice for their compassionate caring of Granny during her final months.
