Charlotte G. Lefevre
1917-2014 EAST DORSET, VT Shut the front door. Charlotte G. Lefevre (Chotsie), left this life January 30, 2014 a she lived it. She was a woman of strong opinions, a quiet dignity, a certain New England grace and most of all a common touch; she loved people. She was the Perle Mesta of Dorset, a model to many and a mother to more than just her two boys Quique and Grant. She leaves; but joins many dear friends. Born in Carver, Massachusetts to Edward and Helen Griffith in 1917, she graduated from Stoneliegh College in 1936 and went right to New York City where she first lived in Grace House. There she met her four best friends who became aunt Jane, aunt Mary, aunt Alice and aunt Mary. She was a Nurses Aide at Sloan Kettering, worked for the Society for the Control of Cancer and for Louis Lieberman in the Apparel Industry. She was pre-deceased by her parents and Eddie, the love of her life. She leaves behind her two sons; her two grandsons, Dave and his wife Gretchen, and Ried and his mother Muriel; and her two great-grandchildren, Caspian and Tavian. Finally, for fear of being haunted and because she loved them all, the family would like to acknowledge and thank her care angels, Laura, Laurie, Leslie, Kim and Kate. A celebration of the life of Charlotte G. Lefevre (Chotsie) will be held in the spring when her favorite flowers are in bloom.
