I have fond memories of Charlotte (Danner) and her mom, Mrs. Newsome. I grew up admiring Charlotte in Carter Tabernacle (Orlando, FL). We served on the stewardess board together in the 70's. I am blessed to have shared in some part of her beautiful life...Sisters in Christ.

Pastor Charlotte was a true woman of God. I remember walking into Faith Temple 21 years ago and seeing Charlotte worship for the first time. What an impact. I looked up to her. Her encouraging words, her words of wisdom, hers songs from her heart to the Lord, her laughter, her seriousness when she was getting ready to get into the presence of God. She took that VERY serious. What an impact in my life. I will miss her greatly. Pastor Eric, Aaron, Alex and Abbi my condolences from my heart. Words cannot express what you are feeling right now. But I now God is strengthening you. Keep on keeping on! Love you guys!

Pastor Eric, Aaron & Kellie, Alexandria, Abigail, and Brittany,

We are so very sorry for your loss. Words can't begin to express how much we know you loved her. She was an amazing Wife, Mom, Aunt and so very much more. I remember when Jim & I first came to Rochester, how warm and friendly Charlotte was to me. We would laugh and sometimes cry in the church nursery at the adventures you children would give us during the week. So much could be said but it wouldn't come close to what you are feeling right now. Just know she loves you all with and everlasting love, and she loved God with all of her heart! Take comfort from God during this time of loss. Lots of Love & Prayers, Jim & Jeannine Cavalieri

Charlotte...you and I have been friends for 25 years and it has been a time of seeing and experiencing great things. We had our babies together, laughed, cried, shopped and had lunch many times, but most of all, we had a passion to serve the
Lord together. I consider it an honor to have been friends with you, you loved and poured out yourself on behalf of others, and you had the most powerful anointing to worship and bring in the presence of God. You have gone on before us and you have seen His face...what a moment.... I know that you are seeing things that cannot be matched here on earth and that you are completely whole walking streets of gold worshipping with the heavenly choir. Thank you for making a difference in my life. I will always hold your memory in my heart, I will miss you deeply, but I know I will see you in Heaven one day and we can see Him together. I love you my friend now and always.

I am s grateful that God placed Charlotte in my life. God gave Charlotte so many wonderful gifts that she freely shared with those in her life. Her smile lit up a room. We will always treasure that Charlotte was a part of our wedding and along with being in the wedding party she sang the most beautiful rendition of "Draw Me Close". She was so secretive about it and made sure we left the church before she would practice it the night of the rehearsal. She made it so much better than the version that was published and sang on the radio. Her impact and friendship in my life will never be forgotten. Our family loves her dearly. God Bless you Charotte.
