Charlotte Gayle Hodges Butler died peacefully on March 3, 2024, in Athens, AL at the age of 74.
She is survived by her brother Jimmy David Hodges and her sister Patricia Hodges McNeal (Lonnie), her uncle Billy Clem, and many beloved nieces, nephews, and cousins. She is preceded in death by her husband Larry Jackson Butler, her loving parents Will David and Martha Nell Hodges, and her sister Deborah Hodges Brown.
Charlotte was born on June 28, 1949, in Limestone County. She attended the Church of the Living God in Elkmont and retired from Brownsferry Nuclear Plant.
Charlotte was passionate about her family, her dogs, and Atlanta Braves Baseball. She loved to travel with her niece and hang out with the ya-ya’s. She enjoyed listening to her brother Jimmy play his guitar and her great nephew Skyler play his keyboard. She was generous to a fault and had a unique sense of humor. To know her was to love her.
She was known as the cornerstone of the family. She never missed any significant event in her nieces and nephews’ lives; birthdays, ballgames, recitals, parades…Aunt Charlotte was always in the crowd.
Visitation will be at Limestone Chapel Funeral Home Thursday, March 7th from 6 pm-8 pm. Memorial Service will be held at Limestone Chapel Funeral Home on Friday, March 8th at 2 pm followed by burial at Butler Cemetery in Elgin. Pallbearers will be Chris McNeal, Will Hodges, Dawson McNeal, Josh Dalberto, Jamie Butler, and Dennis Clem.
The family would like to thank the staff of the Athens Limestone Hospital ICU for the wonderful care and compassion they gave her and our family.
