Charlene Gracie Honea

WINDSOR – Charlene Gracie Honea, 65, passed away suddenly on Jan. 23, 2022, due to natural causes at the Alfond Center for Health in Augusta. She was born on July 2, 1956, a daughter of George E. and Edith (Erbe) Gracie Sr..

Charlene grew up in Connecticut, graduating from Tolland High School in the class of 1974. Summers during her childhood were spent at the family cottage on China Lake, a special place that remained dear to Charlene’s heart all her life. Following high school, Charlene graduated from Secretarial School. She later met her future husband, Larry Honea, and the two were married on Oct. 21, 1989. They settled on Shuman Road in Windsor, and became parents to their daughter, Kaitlyn Honea.

For over 40 years, Charlene was a dedicated employee at Farris, Foley & Dick, P.A. in Augusta as a legal secretary.

Charlene, known to many as “Charlie”, enjoyed fishing, boating, four-wheeling, and spending time at the cottage on China Lake. For many years, she looked forward to playing “Setback” cards every Wednesday night with friends. In her younger years, Charlene was an avid baton twirler, and was devoted in supporting Kaitlyn following her footsteps. Traveling far and wide to competitions, she was proud to watch her daughter bring home many trophies. Charlene was a homebody at heart and simply enjoyed spending time at home, playing on her Kindle.

Above all, she loved her family dearly and was a devoted wife and mother. She was so very loved and will be deeply missed by all who knew her.

She was predeceased by her parents.

She is survived by her loving husband of 32 years, Larry Honea; her daughter, Kaitlyn Honea; her brother, George E. Gracie Jr. and his wife Barbara; dear friends, Bea and Sue Philipp, Bob and Cindy Riley, Linda Nault, Gigi Chalou, and countless other friends.

Relatives and friends are invited to a memorial visitation on Sunday, Jan. 30, 2022 from 2 p.m. to 4 p.m. at Plummer Funeral Home, 983 Ridge Rd., Windsor, Maine. There will also be an informal “celebration of life” at a future date.
