Charlotte Kay Lloyd Wilson
August 25, 1947 - June 14, 2025
Charlotte Kay Lloyd Wilson, 77, of the New Hope Community, passed away on June 14, 2025, in Little Rock, AR, surrounded by her family. Charlotte was a loving wife, mother, grandmother and sister. She was known for her care for others, especially for those in her family and community. Charlotte was born in Monticello, AR, on August 25, 1947, to the late John Thomas Lloyd and Geneva Wigley Lloyd. She was a graduate of Monticello High School. In 1966, Charlotte and her husband, Larry, were married, and enjoyed a long and love-filled marriage of 58 years. Charlotte retired from the City of Monticello Water Office after 33 years. She was a member of Green Hill Baptist Church but considered Prairie Grove Baptist Church her home church. Charlotte's favorite way to show love was through her cooking, and she was known for her talent in the kitchen. She always made sure that each of her family members had their favorite dish on the table for a family meal. Charlotte loved contributing to community cookbooks, potlucks, and church homecoming meals, and she prided herself on always having homemade treats for visitors, even her Trick or Treaters. Charlotte also enjoyed quilting and dedicatedly worked to sew quilts for each of her family members. When dropping by to visit, it wasn't unusual to find her quilting over the frame Larry built her in the living room with one of Larry's favorite movies playing in the background. Charlotte also enjoyed gardening, collecting antiques, especially fine china and Fenton glass, and researching her family's genealogy, which took her and Larry on many adventures. Most of all, Charlotte loved spending time with her family.
Charlotte is preceded in death by her parents, John Thomas Lloyd and Geneva Wigley Lloyd; her brothers, John Arthur (Ossie) Lloyd, Gary Lloyd; and her daughter-in-law, Melody Knowles Wilson.
She is survived by her husband, Larry Wilson of Monticello; son, Stacy (Shana) Wilson of Monticello; daughter, Tonya (Wayne) Hudgens of Hot Springs; and her grandchildren, Elizabeth and Seth; as well as her siblings, Linda Ewell, Shirley (Robert) Miller, Danny (Lisa) Lloyd, and Randy Lloyd; and many nieces and nephews and great nieces and great nephews, all of whom she loved very much.
