Charlene I just learned of your passing today, I was so shocked and saddened. I worked with you many years ago at several salons, you were always so happy, kind and funny. You always had a smile on your face. You were a beautiful person inside and out. I know you are greatly missed by so many. Rest in peaceā™”

Just learned today of Charlene's passing. We are shocked and saddened hearing the news. She was a beautiful person inside and out. We have known her for many years and always enjoyed her visits. So sad that her life experiences separated her from our family. Will miss her beautiful smile and interesting conversations. Sadly,

My dearest Char, I miss you every day and I still can't believe you aren't here with us. Don't be mad that my tears still fall. Only someone as special as you could bring them at all. Sometimes they're selfish tears because I want you here and other times they're tears of laughter when I think about some of the ridiculous stuff we did together. I will miss you til the day we meet again but I will look for you everywhere. Yesterday, a beautiful butterfly came around me and just lingered for awhile. Whether it was or not, I'm taking that as a sign from you. I love you Char!!! ~Renee

A stylist is someone who you might see every couple of weeks and have small talk, but Charlene was more than that. She watched my two brothers and I grow up into the men we are today. For close to 25 years she was the only one to cut our hair, she was apart of each of our childhoods, and we each looked forward to getting to see Charlene. It was more than small talk when we went to see Char, she knew even the smallest of details about our lives. She truly was an angel on earth that brought happiness to my entire family. We will deeply miss you Char.

August 13, 2014

Char, I have literally known you all your life. I remember playing out in the yard with Jenny when your Mom brought you home from the hospital when you were born. I have so many memories that I will cherish forever. We've had a lot of laughs over the years. Girls' weekend will never ever be the same without you! I know you will be with us in spirit keeping Jenny and I safe especially from the white van! "I've got a heart in my chest" and it is breaking right now! I miss you and love you! Till we meet again........ Debbie

My Beautiful friend and beyond. To say we have been friends from the beginning would be a huge understatement considering we were baptized together as babies xo and later became the best of friends. You have and always will have a piece of my heart that can be filled by no other. I Love You my fated friend, may you rest in peace until we meet again.. xoxo. Edith and all family.. I am so sorry for what you are going through and cannot imagine what you are feeling right now as I know how badly this is affecting me. What I can say is this .... Please remember the laughter and smile and all of the great times and allow them to soothe you.. for this is what she would want... God Bless All!
