Charlotte was born the daughter of Raymond Doney and Bertha Prudence Case on October 24, 1938, in Chillicothe, Missouri. She was a 1956 graduate of Chillicothe High School. She was united in marriage to Clarence Edmundson in 1958. To this union, two children were born. She was then united in marriage to Robert (Bob) Howe, Sr. on January 15, 2004. Charlotte worked for 47 years at Chillicothe State Bank, from 1956 until her retirement in 2004. She started out in bookkeeping, and later held the roles of teller, customer service representative, and loan officer, before being promoted to Vice President. She enjoyed many years as the director of the DC Club at the bank. She loved spending time with her family, and created many lasting memories with her grandchildren and great grandchildren. She was kind, loving, and generous to all, and visitors were often met with a warm meal and glass of sweet tea upon arrival. Charlotte enjoyed going to auctions with her husband and tending to her yard and flowers. She loved watching the Royals games, Chiefs games, and Sporting KC Soccer. It wasn't that soccer became so important to watch until her great grandsons, Miles and Evan became avid soccer players in the past few years.
