To the Family of Charline
Only God knows why she is no longer with us. But, we ALL can truly say, how blessed our lives have been to have known her.
I worked with Charline for 2 years, but kept in contact. I will miss her smile, her delicious food dishes, crafts, and enormous devotion she had to her family, job, genealogy, charity work, and friends.
I know before leaving us, she knew we all loved her. So, I have comforted knowing, she is now watching over us.
To her family - if you need anything during this difficult time, please do not hesitate to contact me. 757-876-3289

James, Ronald and Kiet,
I so very sorry for the loss of your mother. Charline and I worked together for many years and she was always a great friend. She had a sweet nature and a sharp wit that always caught me off guard and made me laugh. She was always so proud of her boys. She will be missed.
