CHARLOTTE ROSE BRAUN

I was a student of Charlotte Braun in the early 70's. I was in the "How ya gonna keep em down on the farm" production. And production it was! Being only 7 or 8, I thought we were actually on Broadway in NYC! My time spent at the studio with my sister are found memories that taught me so many things; like my left from my right and to strive for perfection through discipline and hard work. She was the "Best" of the best. My sincere condolences extended to you and your family as the year...

Please accept my sincere condolences. Mrs Braun taught me many of the skills and disciplines that have helped to guide me through my life. I can still see her in my minds eye, decades later, teaching my ballet class. Many of those lessons learned through dance, created the strength and determination that I have found useful in my own career.

Dear Mary Ann and Raymond, I will forever love Mrs. Braun and all she has taught me. She has influenced my whole life, and will be a part of me forever. My sincere sympathy. Love, Denise Kowalski (Wasylyshyn)

Dear Mary Ann and family. Truly sorry for your loss. I had only met your mom once or twice when we were children (St Bartholomew). But after leaving Cleveland in 1971, on my visits once or twice a year I would always pass the dance studio. It was someothing I could count on, and always gave me a sense of "being home". God Bless & Aloha

Dear Mary Ann, and Raymond,I just read about your Mom's passing and I must say that it is with such great sorrow that extend my sympathy to all of you. Your mother was one of the most beautiful ladies I have every known. She truly impacted my life in so many ways. I will remember forever her words, her laughter, her beauty, and her grace! She was one of a kind and she will be greatly missed by all who knew her.
Much Love,
Michele Fiorelli-Rupar & Family

Dear Mary Ann and Raymond,

I just found out the sad news about your Mom and send my heartfelt condolences.

Your Mom definitely was one of a kind and a huge influence in my life. It was such a joy to be in her presence for so many reasons. She inspired me to follow my dreams and made me realize that anything was possible.

Your Mom will always have a special place in my heart. I am so grateful that she was a part of my life. Such wonderful memories…

Dear Mary Ann and Raymond,
I am so sorry to hear of your Mom's passing. I have such fond memories of Mrs. Braun-- from our trips to NYC taking ballet classes during the day, and seeing Broadway plays at night. Dancing at the Steel Pier in Atlantic City, auditions for 'Ballet School'with the Bolshoi, but especially the dress rehearsals for our recitals with Charlotte directing every aspect from the orchestra pit at Parma High!

I am so thankful for the many opportunities your...

My condolences to the Braun/Black families. I thank Mrs. Braun for 12 wonderful years of dance lessons. How I cherish the hours in the studio with live piano music and Mrs. Braun's expectations of discipline and poise! How blessed I was to have her as part of my formative years.
May you rest in peace Mrs. Braun.
