Obituary
Charlotte passed away peacefully on August 22, 2022 at Centennial Place, Millbrook, ON at 89 years of age. She will be lovingly remembered as a wife, mother, and «Nan Extraordinaire». Born and raised in Toronto, Charlotte was a graduate of Branksome Hall (’51) and the Toronto General Hospital School of Nursing (’54). In 1956, Charlotte married Richard “Ian” Hector and together they raised three children, Catherine (Tim) Crockford of Medicine Hat, AB; Richard (Kim) Hector of Uxbridge, ON; and Andrea (Kevin) Matthews of Clarington, ON. Charlotte always commented that having grandchildren was worth having children for, and she was blessed to have five grandchildren whom she adored: Matthew (Kaylen) Crockford; Amy (Mark Peterson) Hector and Brian (Heather) Hector; Katie (Matthew Lipinski) Matthews and Emily (Jarret) MacDonald. We can only imagine how she would have loved her three great-grandchildren: Ainsley MacDonald, Charlotte Lipinski and Avery Hector. Charlotte was predeceased by her parents, Lancing and Charlotte (Magee) Campbell; three older brothers, Bruce, David and Donald; daughter-in-law Kim (Garside) Hector; and most recently her close cousin and «sister», Ann (Gilday) McBride.
In 1989, Charlotte and Ian moved into their dream home in Thornbury, ON, overlooking the ski hills where many fond memories were made with family and friends over the years. Charlotte spent endless hours tending to her gardens at Thornbury where her true skills and passion as a gardener were on display for everyone to enjoy. Along with gardening, Charlotte enjoyed music which would bring her great peace and joy, particularly in her latter years as she struggled through the many stages of Alzheimer’s disease. Charlotte’s family would like to express their deepest appreciation to the wonderful, caring staff at Sunrise of Aurora, ON and Centennial Place, Millbrook, ON.
Cremation has taken place and a private family interment will take place in Merrickville, ON. In lieu of flowers, donations can be made to the Alzheimers’ society.
