Charlie,

I only had the chance met you this last year but Kim has been talking about you since I have known her. You were one of a kind. I will remember your kindness that you shared with me while I was visiting her. I know she will miss you and Kim loved you with all her heart.

Charlene was more than a Sister-in-law to me, she was my Sister, my daughter and most of all my Friend. I will deeply miss her.

Hey Charlie,

What can I say but I miss you more than you'll ever know. Because of you, I wouldn't be here today and with Roland. I'll never ever forget you and will think of you everyday. I'm just so lucky to have come back to be with you. Sorry it was so short. Say HI to Kenny Boy for me! Tell him I miss and love him too. Till I see you two again....

I LOVE YOU AUNT CHARLENE,

Kim Marie

PS...I'll take care of Lenny and Kort while you're gone. I know you're watching me and making sure I do. Anything for you.

Sweet Dreams!!
