Obituary For Charleen Joyce Hoyt
Charleen Joyce Hoyt (1948-2024)
It is with heavy hearts that we announce the passing of Charleen “Char” Hoyt, aged 75, on May 17, 2024. Char passed away in the Chesapeake Regional hospital after battling several significant health issues.
Born on September 7, 1948, Char was the daughter of the late Archie Poyner and Madie Belle Potter. She grew up and lived most of her life in the Hampton Roads area.
Char valued helping people. She spent time volunteering in her children’s school when they were young. She also volunteered with the Plaza Volunteer Rescue Squad in Virginia Beach for several years before transitioning into a full time career as a Telecommunicator in the City of Norfolk’s Emergency Communications (911) center. She retired several years ago and spent time crocheting, reading, doing puzzles, and watching TV. She was outgoing and loved talking with people.
Char is survived by her two children, Jerry and Eric. She also had one other child, Jack, who is deceased.

Eric and Jerry, so sorry for the loss of your mother. I know there are no words that can ease the pain. I worked with Char for many years before she retired from the 911 center. She always kept me laughing and was a character of many trades. I enjoyed working with her. Wishing you guys all the peace and comfort possible. She was truly a sweet person. Her light is shining bright. Ralfella Folston
