SUMMERFIELD, FL/ONTARIO, NY

Age 91, joined his wife Joan in heaven on November 17, 2024. Charlie was born on February 11, 1933 in Troy, NY to Charles L. and Anna Carroll.

Charlie attended Sienna College and then enlisted in the Army. After his discharge, he went to Georgetown University School of Dentistry. He graduated in the spring of 1960 and moved to Ontario, New York to be the town’s first dentist. In Ontario, Charlie and Joan raised their two children, Michelle and Charles (Tay), and enjoyed their many friends.

After retiring from his dental practice in 1988, Charlie and Joan moved to Florida where they enjoyed golfing and playing cards with friends. They always made time to visit their granddaughters too.

Charlie will be remembered for his honesty (and occasional bluntness) and  his fairness. He loved to read about science, politics and  economics. Charlie enjoyed telling jokes - even if we had heard them a dozen times before. He had an incredible memory and was able to recite food prices from his childhood or particular golf shots from many years before. He was a loving  husband, father, grandfather and  friend.

Charlie was preceded in death by his wife, parents and sister, Marcy  Suprenant, and is survived by his children, Michelle (Dan) Carpenter and Charles J; his granddaughters, Blair and Jamie Carpenter; and his siblings, Dennis (Diane) and Denise (Irving) Lobdell.

There will be no service, but donations  can be made in Charlie’s  honor to the American Heart Association.
