My condolences to the family of Charlotte McCourt for your loss. I too understand what you are going through as I recently lost my mother just a few months ago. There is a hole in your heart but with that comes the peace knowing your loved one is no longer in pain or suffering. I had the pleasure of knowing Charlotte for a number of years and know that she was a very wonderful woman. Pat, I am very sorry for your loss and pray that you will find the comfort to help you through this time. To her children, you are a testimony to the faith she shared throughout her whole life with many people. To her grandchildren and extended family, take pleasure in knowing a wonderful woman who brought a joy to this world. I pray that you will find a peace to come to you while you are mourning the loss of your wife, mother and grandmother.

I remember Sister McCourt as an inspiring Relief Society President in the North Las Vegas Stake. I have fond memories of going to her home and spending time with her family. Charlotte was sincere and gave good advice to those around her. My heartfelt condolences to her husband, children and grandchildren. Ann and Lanny, I cherish the times we spent together and I am sorry for your loss. I am grateful to have known your family.

I am truly sorry for the temporary separation of Sister McCourt from those she knew and loved. What a wonderful message from the grave - may her desire be accomplished at the polls. I hope to live to the extent that I may be worthy of someday meeting Charlotte - I'm sure she will be in the Celestial Kingdom. May God bless her family and friends in her absence as she lives on in a much better realm.

I wil always remember Charlotte. She worked on several of my political campaigns - and, was so kind and delightful. I admired her dedication to her faith and to her love of Nevada. She was also kind enough to bake me one of the best yellow coconut cakes I've ever had for a special birthday. I'm so blessed to have known her. Larry Spitler

I worked with Charlotte during the late 70's and thru the 80's on several key political issues, including the ERA. She was absolutely tireless and never lost her focus. Her integrity was second to none. We need more like her. Her wit and insights into the political arena were priceless.

A link to this appeared on my Facebook page referencing the last three sentences. Though obituaries are notoriously sad, I very much enjoyed reading this and can only think that Mrs. McCourt had to have been a positively delightful woman! I love a great sense of humor and for such a statement to be written in her obituary shows that she not only possessed one, but she handed it down through her generations, and now the nation. I love it! Wish I had known her.

Dear McCourt's:
I was sorry to hear of your Mom's passing. When I lived in Las Vegas I went to church with Charlotte and we were in the Christy Meadows Ward together. I am now in the Indianapolis area so I was not aware of your Mother's passing until I heard it on the news. She was a lovely, feisty lady and a great asset to our Relief Society. Many people will miss the vitality your mother brought with her. A great lady that I know you were proud of.
Sincerely
Jacque (Woodard) Swisher

Hello McCourts,
I am so sorry to hear of your mom's death. She was always so sweet with me--no matter how much time I spent at your house, whether in Idaho or Nevada. She had a fire within for what she believed in. They don't make many like our moms anymore! You are in my prayers.

I met the McCourt family almost 50 years ago.Charlotte was one of the kindest,sweetest people I ever met.When I needed a job at the time, she picked up the phone, made a couple of calls, and told me where to show up for work the next day. Where she saw a need, she was the type to take action. I will always remember her kindness and friendship from across the counter at the "Rexall".My condolences to Pat, Larry, Lanny and the girls. I share in your loss.

I was very saddened to hear of Charlotte McCourt's passing. My deepest sympathy goes out to her family. My husband and I had the priviledge of knowing her, as she was in our Ward here in Pahrump. Despite being ill for many years, she always had a smile and kind words to say to everyone that she met. She was always such a sweet woman. She definitely always made me feel welcome and loved. She really was an angel among us. She truly will be missed.

We have known Charlotte for over 40 years. I worked with her in the North stake Relief Society Presidency with Arda Harmon. We loved each other so much and worked together so well. She was always on top of everything in the church as well as in the country! She loved politics and did so much for many campaigns. We loved her obituary and can see her saying exactly what was said in the closing lines! She always told it like it is. And now she's famous for it! Go Charlotte!!!
Our deepest love to all of her loved ones! Diana and Jerry Quinn

Charlotte was a great influence on our lives. She and Pat were our home teachers when we lived in the Christy Meadows Ward. In addition to faithfully visiting our family every month she took the extra time to bring a gospel activity for our two young children to participate. She and Pat were faithful missionaries in the Philippines. She stood for her principles and served her fellow man. She loved the temple and particpated on regular basis. My family's life is better for having associated with her.

WE can all be angels to one another. We can choose to obey the still small stirring wqithin, the little whisper that says, Go, Assk, Reach ouit. Be an answer to someone's plea. You have a aprt to play. have faith.' We can decide to reisk that He is indeed there, watching, caring, cherishing us as we love and accept love. the world will be a better place for it. And wherever they are, the angles will dance.
