"Love at Home" - three simple words that exemplify our mom, grammy, great-grandmother, aunt, neighbor and friend. Mae LaRee Cooper Charles passed away on Feb. 9, 2016 in Salt Lake City, Utah, of renal failure.
She was born to Nathaniel and Isabell Church Cooper on March 16, 1926 and raised in Panguitch, Utah. She was proud of her small town heritage and it was there where she met and fell in love with William Leonard Charles. They married May 29, 1944 and their marriage was later solemnized in the St. George LDS temple. Bill and Mae raised their family in Rose Park where Mae lived for 60 years. She was the ultimate 1960's mother and nothing was more important to her than her family. Mae was classy, stylish, and had a great wit. Anyone who came to her home was always welcomed with, "How about a Coke or a piece of candy or something to eat?" She was a member of the Rancho Bowling Lanes Ladies Traveling League and was a beloved Primary and Sunday School teacher. Mae worked at the Salt Lake Chamber of Commerce for 21 years as the receptionist, a job she was always proud of and loved the people she worked with.
Mae was preceded in death by her husband, parents, two brothers, three sisters, and a son-in-law. She is survived by her children, 8 loving grandchildren, 9 great-grandchildren, many loved nieces and nephews, and one sister.
"There is one who smiles on high, when there's love at home." Thanks for your love, Mom.
