She was born on May 7, 1940, in Uniontown, PA, the daughter of the late John and Helen Malaspina. She was a 1958 graduate of German Township High School.
She married Jerry Mackey on May 17, 1972. He passed away on December 26, 2021, just shy of their 50th wedding anniversary. She lived the last 53 years in Waynesburg, raising three children and spoiling her grandchildren.
She worked as a caregiver for Greene ARC and Fayette Resources, until her retirement in 2009. Charlotte loved rooting for and yelling about the Pittsburgh Steelers and Pittsburgh Pirates. She was looking forward to watching the Steelers this Fall because the Pirates “weren’t any good.” She loved playing bingo and playing cards, when her health permitted. Her greatest love was her grandchildren. She was always present at their various events whether it was a dance recital, play, sporting event, or whatever it may be. You could always count on her to be there.
Charlotte is survived by her daughter Patty Alden, son Jerry (Maranda) Walters of Crucible, son Brad (Kelly) Mackey of Waynesburg, and Matt (Terri) Mackey, of Waynesburg; grandchildren Jerry Walters, Amanda Walters, David O’Donoghue, Kara Mackey, Ayden Mackey, Gavin, Levi, Laken, and Miles Walters, and Noah Krupar; sister Antoinette (Robert) Leshinsky; sister-in-law Carolyn Mackey, sister-in-law Nancy Panzo; special family members Lloyd and Sue Hixon, Linda Hixon, Jennifer Hixon, and Billie Jo (Greg) Yakubik; several nieces, nephews, and great-grandchildren.
In addition to her husband and parents, Charlotte is preceded in death by a grandson Jeromy (JJ) Mackey, brother Richard who was KIA in the Vietnam War in 1966, and special family members Ken and Thelma Hixon, Pete and Sandy Hixon, and Bill Hixon.
The family is requesting, to honor Charlotte and her love for the Steelers and Pirates, to please come wearing Steelers or Pirates attire.
Friends will be received on Friday, July 11, 2025, from 2 to 4 and 6 to 8 pm in the Behm Funeral Home, 182 W. High Street, Waynesburg, PA 15370, where funeral services will be held on Saturday, July 12, 2025, at 11:00 am with the Pastor Eric Spanier officiating.
