Charlotte Black Currier

Charlotte was a devoted wife, mother, grandmother and great grandmother and will be greatly missed. Charlotte was preceded in death by her parents, Eric and Nell Black, a sister, Lynelle Harrison and a daughter, Suzy Fields.

Charlotte is survived by her husband of 66 years, Thomas Jay Currier, a daughter, Becky Burgess (John) a sister, Anita Ransom, seven grandchildren, Jacob Whittle (Katie), Patrick Cook, April Gray (Jeff), Isaac Whittle, Erin Williams (Joel), Peyton Whittle and Ethan Burgess. Seven great grandchildren, Ava, Emma, Lily, Jordan, Brantly, Jack, soon to arrive Alora and a host of cousins, nieces and nephews, close friends and her church family at Hayden United Methodist Church where she was a member.

Charlotte made it a career working as a book keeper and a secretary but her true passion was collecting antiques and she had an antique shop in Warrior and Hayden, before retiring.

Charlotte, aka “Granny” had a beautiful spirit and smile that would light up a room. Charlotte’s greatest gift was doing for others as that gave her the greatest joy. She loved her family and friends and enjoyed spending time with them. She supported organizations that were dedicated to helping other in need. She was always available to help and care for a sick grandchild. She would use that time to spoil them a little more. She showed her creativity through sewing, oil painting and decorating her home with antiques. She enjoyed watching Turner Classic movies, Rachel Ray and Bama football. It was a treat to be able to go back to visit family near Atlanta where she grew up. Taking that “annual” trip with family members was talked about for months.

In lieu of flowers, please consider making a donation to in her name to Sav-A-Life or with any Salvation Army location.
