Charlotte Mary Murphy obituary

Charlotte Mary Losito Murphy nee Jones, born on October 6, 1955, in Ilion, New York, passed away peacefully holding hands with her son in her home in Norman, Oklahoma at the age of 67. She was surrounded by many family members. Charlotte was the daughter of Thomas and Helen (Irving) Jones of Ilion New York.

Charlotte, known to all as Peachie throughout her entire life, was the consummate Energizer Bunny at home and at work. Her career included real estate, property management, office management and major event planning. Peachie left no stone unturned when it came to details of anything she undertook. Her career of various jobs took her from the Mohawk valley in upstate New York, to Little Rock Arkansas in the deep south, then back to Saratoga Springs in upstate New York and finally to Norman Oklahoma where she was a key employee in the Cooperative Council for Oklahoma School Administrators (CCOSA). Several of her choices of work locations were driven by her desire to be closer to family members when circumstances dictated. She was not only a diligent, hard worker, but also the most passionate and compassionate of person.

Peachie's presence and persona will be grievously missed, but always remembered. Rest In Peace to a most wonderful wife, mother, sister, coworker and friend to us all.

Charlotte was preceded in death by her parents, Thomas and Helen Jones. She is survived by her husband, John; her son Rocco J Losito III (Catherine); her brother Bob (Linda) Jones; her sister Barbara (Ed) VanSickle; her nieces Carissa (Chris) Egan, Denise (Shawn) McNeal, Charmaine Hochman and nephew Dylan (Kristi) Jones as well as several cousins and great nephews.

With heartfelt thanks, the family greatly appreciates the prayers and support you have shown them during this trying time. In lieu of flowers, please donate to a cancer charity of your choice.

Peachie's family is planning a Celebration of Life on June 24th at 11am at the Hilton Garden Inn, 700 Copperfield Dr, in Norman, Oklahoma for her and her friends and coworkers.
