Kingston
Charlotte Mae Calhoun Wilson, 90, Kingston, MO., passed away on February 18, 2023, at the Daviess County Nursing and Rehab. Center, Gallatin, MO., just a few miles from her birthplace.
Charlotte was born on April 20, 1932, in rural Gallatin, to Glen and Mayme (Wilder) Calhoun. She was the youngest of four children and was raised in Altamont.
Charlotte married Bob Wilson and they had seven children and later divorced. She lived in Kidder, Hamilton, and finally her beloved home in Kingston. She worked for and retired from the Stride Rite Shoe Factory, Hamilton, after 30 years of service.
She was an avid fan of the Kidder Pirates and Hamilton Hornets ball teams. She loved to sew and make quilts, each of her great-grandchildren received a baby quilt, some more than one! She also enjoyed gardening, volunteering at the Caldwell County Food Pantry, tending to her flowers and watching/feeding her birds (and squirrels). A little known talent was her ability to write beautiful poetry. Charlotte especially loved the vacations at the family cabin in the Ozarks.
Charlotte had a strong faith in God and was admired for her strength in the face of tragedy. She was the best!
She was preceded in death by her parents, three sons-Kent, Jack, and Tim Wilson, grandson-Cody Wilson, sister-Lucille Kiefer, brother-in-law-Paul Kiefer, and sister-in-law-Ginny Calhoun.
