Charlotte was born June 4, 1941 the third child of 10 siblings born to Jonathan Crockett and Nannette Foster Crockett. She was born in Bethel, but some of her favorite childhood memories were from her time spent on a farm on Pottle Hill in Minot. Charlotte worked odd jobs thru the years, but her favorite was apple picking at Fillebrown orchards in Waterford.
Charlotte married the love of her life and best friend, Paul Kimball on April 20, 1963, though they had been with each other since grade school days developing a friendship that would turn into a marriage that lasted 55 years. Charlotte and Paul raised two children, sharing their love for gardening, canning, fishing and bluegrass festivals as well as many other beloved outdoor activities. Most of all Charlotte loved spending time with her family she cherished so much, whether it was playing cards with her siblings, sledding with her kids and grandkids or simply holding her great grandchildren. She was a member of the Locke Mills Union Church and loved working on the strawberry & blueberry festivals.
