Charles Arthur ‘Charlie’ Letcher
1939-2021
Mr. Charles Arthur ‘Charlie’ Letcher
passed away after a short battle with cancer, while at the Medicine
Hat Regional Hospital on Saturday, April 17, 2021, at the age of 81
years. Charlie was born in Port Hawkesbury, Cape Breton, Nova Scotia
on June 14, 1939, to the late Clair and Mary (nee Allen)
Letcher.
It was while growing up there that he developed his passion
for fishing. Since coming to Alberta, he made many trips to the Blood
Indian and Bullshead Reservoir’s and Reesor and Michelle
Lakes. Charlie had a fulfilling career in the Royal Canadian Artillery
from 1958 to 1993. He served in Picton, ON.; Gagetown, NB.; Shilo,
MB.; Cairo and Ismalia, Egypt; Baden, Germany; twice in Cyprus, Saigon
and Hanoi Vietnam; Yuma, Arizona; Wainwright, AB.; New Westminster,
BC.; Winnipeg, MB., and finally in Suffield, AB. After
retiring, Charlie was an active member of the Royal Canadian Legion in
Medicine Hat and the National Association of Federal Retirees. Charlie
enjoyed traveling to Mexico, across Canada from BC to NS and to
Alaska. He was always ready to give up his time for others including
as a Big Brother and a Poppy Fund volunteer. Charlie’s wish
to donate his body to science, did not come to fruition due to his
declined health.
He will be remembered by his sisters, Bette Horton of
Mulgrave, NS., and Jean Dutcher of Woodstock, NB.; niece, Nancy
Derrick of Stittsville, ON.; furry friends, Chewie and Miller; his
little buddies, Robert Parkinson and Colton Matheson who he mentored
as a Big Brother; many Brothers at Arms from the military; trusted
neighbours, Don and Lynne; coffee buddies as well as many other
nieces, nephews and friends. He was predeceased by his brothers, Clair
and William.
A memorial celebration of Charlie’s life will be
held at a future date when restrictions are eased. Burial will take
place in Southbrook Cemetery, Port Hawkesbury at a later
date.
