There isn't a day that goes by that I do not think of Charlene. She is one of those people that makes a difference in your life whether you realized it at the time or not. She is always in my heart and I will cherish those moments that we ate lunch together at DMA or talked on the phone. I am going to miss her so much!

Charlene was the first person I met when I came to Dallas on Sept. 1st, 1952. We attended high school together, we were both born in Missouri, and strangely our mothers shared the same birthday, year and day. We have shared so many wonderful conversations about our Lord together, played bridge together, had breakfast together and sewed together, etc. I will miss you dearly, precious Christian Friend. Rest in PEACE beautiful lady!

Ms. Charlene will be missed dearly, she always gave me words of encouragement when my mom was sick. I remember our talks about Thrift Stores and how much we loved going to them. She was always all smiles and had a great story to tell, I will dearly miss those morning talks at the copier.
Prayers for your loss.

I started working at the Dallas Museum of Art in April of this year and Charlene was so helpful during my first weeks as I learned about the DMA. She was a sincere and delightful person.
Many prayers for your loss.
