1935 - 2026
Born in Sharon, Massachusetts, she was the daughter of the late Barbara B. (Bowman) and Thomas J. McNair and the beloved wife of John F. Hunt.
Charlotte cherished time spent at the beach and loved to travel, especially her two treasured trips to Ireland. She delighted in life’s simple pleasures — decorating for every holiday (and she truly meant all of them), playing solitaire, solving puzzles, and watching game shows with anyone willing to join her. A favorite indulgence was a trip to Crescent Ridge for her beloved ice cream.
She worked for many years at The Framingham 14 Cinema, The Pot Belly Deli, and Big D (formerly Big Buy). Above all, Charlotte devoted herself to her family. She lovingly cared for her home, her children, grandchildren, and great-grandchildren. Her house was always the gathering place — not only for her own children, but for their extended circle of friends as well. Even at 91, Charlotte insisted on hosting holiday meals, and family celebrations will never quite be the same without her warmth at the center of them.
In addition to her husband, she is survived by her children: Kathleen Nichols and her husband Wayne of Charleston, SC; Kevin, Cheryl, and Shawn Connors of Holliston; Christopher Connors and his wife Lisa of Medway; and Ellen Connors of Ashland. She also leaves behind eight grandchildren, six great-grandchildren, and three great-great-grandchildren.
She was predeceased by her son, Edward Connors, and by her brothers, Charles and John McNair.
