To the McCoy family: Charlene opened her heart to me and all who crossed her path. The love of her family was apparent to all who she spent any time with. She will be missed.

To the McCoy family: Charlene touched our hearts in many ways. Always positive and genuine to all whom she had contact with. She was a supportive friend, caring and kind mother to everyone, and loved anything Indianan. She will be greatly missed.
