Louise Audrey Wetherby, 93, of 62 Wetherby Road in Charlestown, NH passed away on November 8, 2022 at the home of her daughter.

She was born in Montgomery Center, VT on Mar. 23, 1929 the daughter of Mitchell and Mabel M. (Arel) Demar and resided in Charlestown from Sept. 1951until March 17, 2022.  Mrs. Wetherby worked as a cashier for 18 years at the First National Store and before that at Sally's Restaurant for 8 years. She also worked at Fletcher's News Stand and White Mountain Paper in Bellows Falls, VT.

She was a communicant of All Saints Parish and was very active with church suppers, funeral luncheons at St. Catherine's and doing volunteer work at Charlestown Friendly Community Meals.  She was famous for her pie making and baked beans. She loved yard sales. Her favorite pastime, besides visiting at her kitchen table with neighbors, friends and relatives, was volunteering at "the Mall." She so enjoyed looking over used clothing and household items delivered to the Charlestown Transfer Station.  Initially it was located in a dark corner of the large butler building – no heat and minimal lighting. She would sort through, bring items home to wash, dry, iron and then GIVE AWAY. In 2016 she was thrilled to be the volunteer with the most hours every week at the new Re-Use Building, aka "the Mall."

There she spent many happy hours each week greeting folks, sizing them up and connecting them to new apparel.

Wetherby of Charlestown whom she married on April 10, 1947 as well as by four sisters, Emaline Potvin, Rosanna Grant, Erma Deuso, Ruth LePage and two brothers, Robert M. "Bud" Demar and Mitchell H.
