CHARLOTTE MCCONNELL

(née Sarsfield, August 9, 1962 – March 5, 2026) With heavy hearts, the family announces the passing of Charlotte McConnell. Born August 9, 1962, Charlotte was a devoted wife, mother, sister and friend, whose kindness and generosity touched many. She is survived by her husband, Eamonn McConnell (m. 1990); daughters, Emily McConnell (Justin Potts), Celia McConnell (Henry Grass), and Megan McConnell; and grandson, Charlie, born five days before her passing. She is also remembered by her sisters, Sarah Lowery, Lucy Marshall, and her twin, Laura James, all of the United Kingdom. Charlotte lived and worked in the United Kingdom, Thailand, Hong Kong, and Canada, building many lifelong friendships along the way. She volunteered at CAMH in Toronto and spent much of her free time helping others. Her generosity, warmth, and selflessness will be deeply missed. The family extends heartfelt gratitude to the caregivers, the ALS team at Sunnybrook Health Sciences Centre, and the palliative care staff at Mount Sinai Hospital for their compassionate care. A small family service has already taken place. A public celebration of Charlotte's life will be held later this year. In lieu of flowers, the family kindly requests donations may be made in Charlotte's memory to ALS Canada (donate.als.ca/p2p/site/7nSjM/page/2bS948#/).
