Charlotte Meister Obituary

Charlotte Sullivan Meister, 94, of Cornelia, passed away on Thursday, October 9, 2025.
Born on April 29, 1931, in Tallulah Falls, she was a daughter of the late Choice Felton and Reba Teague Sullivan. Charlotte will be remembered by many for her long and dedicated career at Johnson and Johnson, where she began working in 1954 and continued until her retirement in 1990.
Charlotte was a devoted and active member of First Baptist Church of Cornelia, where she served faithfully for many years. She was deeply involved in the church's ministries, especially the Woman's Missionary Union (WMU), and contributed her time, talents, and heart to various church activities. Her faith was a guiding light in her life and her commitment to her church community was unwavering.
She had a passion for traveling and enjoyed trips in the US and abroad with her travel friends. In her spare time, she enjoyed sewing for others and was known to be a talented seamstress. Charlotte loved her family and her church deeply. Her family will fondly remember her as a loving and devoted "Mimi."
In addition to her parents, she was preceded in death by her husband, Robert Lee "Bob" Meister, Jr., and her sister, Betty Jane Dyer.
Survivors include her daughter and son-in-law, Beth Shore (Ken), of Demorest; grandchildren, Karen Klacik (Steve), of Gainesville, and Ellen Smith (Chris), of Braselton; great-grandchildren, Emma Grace Smith, Sarah Smith, and Reed Smith; and several nieces and a nephew, other relatives, and friends.
Memorial services will be held at 3 p.m. on Friday, October 24, 2025, in the chapel of McGahee-Griffin and McEntire with Dr. Nathan LaShoto officiating. The family will receive friends from 2 p.m. until the service hour. A private inurnment will be held at Yonah Memorial Gardens.
