Not sure what to say?

I found this page looking for Char, because an old friend of hers is really sick, this is Ben or Benny as you will remember me. Viann's son. Char was like a second mother to me once, she was like a big sister to my mom. We lost contact many years ago. I really don't know what to say, but if Sue or Vicki want to contact me I'm really easy to find, Ben Borgman, Seattle.

You are in our thoughts and prayers.

I first met Char when she was with McDonald Industries. We always seemed to be crossing paths. When I came to work for Coast Crane August 1, 2000 I started by helping her with the AGC Golf Tournament the last Friday in July.I was delighted to help her with the tournament every year after that. Char was a wonderful person and fun to be around. I will miss her.

If you're lucky, life's most memorable moments are shared with special people, like Char, who exude such positive charisma and energy that you simply want to be around them. Thoughts of Char will always bring a smile to my face. As I remember her, I will laugh a little longer and try a little harder to "pay it forward." With fond memories,

What a beautiful and indelible mark you have left on my heart Momma Char! I have been blessed by your kindness and sunshine! I have never met such a positive and loving character as you! While facing your own battles, your heart has always been open to helping and loving others. I will never forget you cheering me on during all the ups and downs of this past year and the love you showed my babies. You are a treasured friend and now a precious angel. I have peace knowing that you are...

Our thoughts and prayers are with all of you at this sad time. Char was ONE of a kind. We both have wonderful memories of her. She will be truly missed by all that knew and loved her.

Love you, Sue...Hugs!

I am so sorry for your loss, Sue and family! She sounds like she was a delight to know. Paul and I pray your memories of her bring you and your loved ones comfort in the days and years to come.

So sorry Sue, My thoughts and prayers are with you at this sad time.

It has been almost 30 years since I last saw Char, it is crazy how life can go so fast when it only seems like you blinked. I have nothing but good memories of Char. She definitely set a good example for a girl to follow. Thanks for being a positive part of my childhood :)
