Lovetta Cordell Eggers

May 23, 1920 - October 19, 2016

Lovetta C. Eggers, 96, of Mint Hill, North Carolina, was a gift to Otis and Jettie Huffman Cordell on May 23, 1920, in Hickory, North Carolina, and on October 19, 2016, the gift was given back. She grew up in Catawba County and married Charlie C. Eggers who preceded her in death. She enjoyed many things in life including wrestling, racing (especially the Earnhardts) and watching television. Her favorite programs to watch were the Kardashians and the news, of which she loved keeping up with what was happening in the world. Most of all, however, she loved caring for people and her almost 97 years gave her quite the opportunity to do that. After her husband died, she spent 30 years living with and caring for her sister, Ruth Atkins, who also preceded her in death. She was a very giving and loving soul who will be sadly missed by all who knew her. Lovetta is survived by two children: a loving daughter, Willadean Tomlinson and husband Gary of Mint Hill, and a loving son, Glenn R. Eggers of Charlotte. She is also survived by her sisters: Lucille Marshall and Frankie Caldwell; grandchildren: Sheri Tomlinson and Charlie C. Eggers III; great grandchildren: Gary D. Tomlinson III, Haley M. Tomlinson, Paige N Tomlinson, Elizabeth Eggers and William N. Eggers; and many nieces and nephews whom she remembered often. She was preceded in death by husband Charlie Eggers, son Charles C. Eggers II, sister Ruth Adkins, brothers Burl and Everett Cordell, and grandson Gary D. Tomlinson II. Visitation will begin at 2 pm on Monday, October 24, in the mausoleum chapel at Sunset Memory Gardens, 8901 Lawyers Road, Charlotte. Mr. Michael Neddo will lead the service beginning at 3 pm with interment to follow. Lowe-Neddo Funeral Home given the privilege of caring for the family.
