Charlotte Imislund Obituary

Imislund, Charlotte Koehler August 26, 1929 - September 18, 2012 Passed away very peacefully in her home, much loved by her family and friends. She is survived by her husband, five children, fifteen grandchildren, and six great-grandchildren. She was a native of Wisconsin and trained to be a nurse. She married in 1949 and celebrated her 63rd wedding anniversary in March. In later years she became a computer analyst until her retirement. She was a secular Franciscan. Her faith was the cornerstone of her life, and provided peace at the moment of her death. For the past forty years she worked to help the lives of many lost men and women, and her home became a weekly refuge for them. A rosary and viewing will be held at Malinow & Silverman Mortuary 7366 Osage Avenue, Westchester, from 5:00 pm to 8:00 pm on Sunday 23rd; the funeral ceremony will take place on Monday, at 10:00 am on September 24th at St. Mark's Church 940 Coeur D Alene Avenue, Venice. Burial will be in Black River Falls, Wisconsin, next to her mother and son. In lieu of flowers please send contributions to The Humane Society, 2100 L. Street N. West, Washington, DC 20037.

Charlotte was my friend that I could confide in on any subject. She was the rock that I would find shelter in any storm. Her wisdom was always there to help me in any problem. Although she has been gone for 12 years now, her lessons are still part of my life. God Bless You, Charlotte, may he hold you in His hands and give you the comfort that you gave me.

Dearest Charlotte,
You and Clancy were so open to Jim and I when we first came to the program and we have thought of you often. We credit your guidance and support to our 46-year marriage. Without it we would not have the life that we have or the awesome experiences that we have shared. I remember your saying that in a relationship your joys are multiplied and your problems are divided. It is a joy to know that as you continue on your journey of eternal life you are guided, guarded, protected and directed by the God within.

Only Love,

Nancy Gage

An Angel among us no more, Charlotte is probably petting a cat, feeding a dog, sharing a laugh, giving someone a hug, or sharing her very lovely smile with others her next destination right now. I will never forget the love and kindness that Charlotte showed to me, coming from such brokenness it was probably as much as I have ever known. I was fortunate to have her hold onto my arm when Clancy led us all in a song for Charlotte's "Birthday" just two and a half weeks ago, there was a light in her eyes then as we were singing to her, and so the lasting memory that I will always have of Charlotte is the sense of love she had for and received from all of us. "Vanna", we will be laughing again sometime soon, you have my Love and Gratitude! You and your Awesome family are all in my prayers.
