Please know that Bob & I are thinking of you from a far distance. We wish we could be with you. Charlotte was always full of fun -- from the times on the boat at Wilton Creek to the golf course. She would always stop & tell me her Kenny stories as she traveled around the course in her cart. My mom used to tell me, "that lady can dance" as Charlotte picked out any man that would dance with her at the Williamsburg Country Club dinner parties. She was a hoot. You could not help but like this lady as she was so full of life. I sure hope that I can have the spunk that she had when I'm in my 80's.
Please know that we are thinking of you and that you are in our prayers.
