Charlotte Barker

Charlotte Ruth Robertson Barker (formerly Davis, Miller), born April 25th, 1930, peacefully passed on March 13th, 2025. She was born to D.C (Cortez) & Freida O. Robertson on Valley Creek near Wilmeth in Runnels County. The family later moved closer to Winters where she attended WISD and was active in numerous clubs and organizations, graduating in 1947. Charlotte spent many hours helping on the family farm, but when she was about 10 years old, she decided enough was enough! She told her Daddy "I'm too little to pick cotton," and headed into town where she got a job counting nails at Higginbothams. Over the years, Charlotte kept books for many local businesses and also worked for multiple Winters jewelry stores. She eventually retired after 21 years as the office manager for the medical practice of Dr. Y. K. Lee. Charlotte was blessed with three great loves in her lifetime. The first she met while working at Higginbothams, Willis C. Davis Jr. They married on a Sunday afternoon in May of 1948 and settled in the Drasco community. Together they welcomed two children, Carla and Michael, and operated their farm until Willis' untimely death in July of 1970. In 1982, Charlotte married her next love, Charles H. Miller. The two enjoyed playing golf, traveling, and spending time with their families, including Charles' daughters, Camille and Missy. Their time together came to an end with his passing in 1985. Her third blessing appeared when a high school sweetheart reconnected with her after many years. Charlotte and William S. (Bill) Barker married in January of 1996. They enjoyed many years together traveling the U.S., visiting and supporting friends and family. They rarely missed their grandchildren's activities and school events. After 24 years together, Bill was called home in April of 2020. Charlotte is survived by brother Dr. Eugene B. Robertson; daughter Carla Woolley and husband John; son Michael Davis and wife Nancy; granddaughter Stefanie Davis and husband Jerrod; granddaughter Rachel Davis; and great-grandson Jeffrey Davis. Also surviving are step-daughters Camille Miller Lloyd & Missy Miller Lloyd; grandson C.T. Lloyd and family; grandson Ace Lloyd; and granddaughter Courtney Toth Moeller and family. Also surviving are nieces, nephews, extended family members, and friends. Preceding her in death are her parents, her brother John B. (Cotton) Robertson, her two sisters Jerry Lloyd and Patricia (Pat) Williams, and other beloved family members. Visitation will be Friday, March 21st at 6:00 PM at Winters Funeral Home. A memorial honoring Charlotte's almost 95 years will be held at First Baptist Church of Winters, where she was a lifelong member, on Saturday March 22nd at 2:00 PM. A private family interment will be held at Northview Cemetery in Winters. In lieu of flowers, please consider making memorial contributions to the Z.I.
