Please accept our condolences from the Court of Queen's Bench in Calgary. We all worked with Charlene and cared for her very much. She was a positive addition to our family here. She always wore a smile and had something positive to say. She will be greatly missed.

Duane and family,we have never met,however know that you are in our thought's and prayer's.I have cried many tears,I cannot imagine the pain and heartache you are going through.Our sympathies to all the family and friends....

Although we have never met any of you, we want to send our sincerest sympathy to you & all the families of St. Brieux on this unthinkable tragedy. We cannot imagine how much sadness you must feel!! There are many many people praying for you, for peace & strength to carry on! We are so sorry!

To my dearest family, some things I'd like to say...
but first of all, to let you know, that I arrived
okay.
I'm writing this from heaven. Here I dwell with God above.
Here, there's no more tears of sadness; here
is just eternal love.

Please do not be unhappy just because I'm out of sight.
Remember that I'm with you
every morning, noon and night.
That day I had to leave you when my life on earth was through,
God picked me up
and hugged me and He said, "I welcome you."

It's good to have you back again; you were missed while you were
gone.
As for your dearest family, they'll be here later on.
I need you here badly; you're part of my plan.

There's so much that we have to do, to help our mortal man.

God gave me a list of things, that he wished for
me to do.
And foremost on the list, was to watch and care for you.
And when you lie in bed at night, the day's
chores put to flight.
God and I are closest to you....in the middle of the night.

When you think of my life
on earth, and all those loving years
because you are only human, they are bound to bring you tears.
But do not
be afraid to cry; it does relieve the pain.
Remember there would be no flowers, unless there was some rain.


I wish that I could tell you all that God has planned.
But if I were to tell you, you wouldn't understand.
But
one thing is for certain, though my life on earth is o'er.
I'm closer to you now, than I ever was before.


There are many rocky roads ahead of you and many hills to climb;
but together we can do it by taking one day at a
time.
It was always my philosophy and I'd like it for you too...
that as you give unto the world, the world will
give to you.

If you can help somebody who's in sorrow and pain,
then you can say to God at night......"My day
was not in vain."
And now I am contented....that my life has been worthwhile,
knowing as I passed along the
way, I made somebody smile.

So if you meet somebody who is sad and feeling low,
just lend a hand to pick
him up, as on your way you go.
When you're walking down the street, and you've got me on your mind;
I'm walking in
your footsteps only half a step behind.

And when it's time for you to go.... from that body to be free,
remember
you're not going.....you're coming here to me.

I am a great friend of Charlene and have been since I was a little girl as Charlene used to babysit me....I grew up with Charlene and was very close with her and shared numerous phone calls, letters, pictures and emails back and forth. Charlene was an angel and inspiration to all who knew her.....My thoughts are with you Duane, Allen, Pat and Wayne and to the families of the other friends who travelled together with them that tragic day.....MY CONDOLENCES TO ALL.....

You will always live in our hearts and prayers.

Duane and family of Charlene;

My deepest sympathy for your tragic loss. Charlene was such a incredible person on every level and someone you were proud to say you were friends with ! As you start your journey of healing remember the special little things about each one of them that made you laugh and that they will always live on with all of us in our memories.

There are no words and just so many tears of saddness for these families. May they find comfort in those around them, from their community and all the prayers and thoughts by people from across the nation.

Words can not express your sense of loss. Please know many persons unknown to you are thinking of you and your families. Hold on to memories, thinking and speaking often of all girls and the mom.

To all the families who have lost loved ones, my deepest sympathy. I personally do not know them, but I have shed tears, knowing what they must be going through, you are in my prayers.

Duane, my heart goes out to you - I was very saddened when I heard the news from Lorelle about Char, Aspyn and Madison. I can't even begin to understand the pain and loss you are feeling right now. May god give you strength every day. Hold on tight to the one's who love you for support. Please accept my deepest condolences and pass them on to you Mom and Dad, as well as the entire family. Love you lots and take care.

Addie

I always knew that Charlene was an angel with her ever so cheerful smile and helpful heart. Prayers go out to her family. May God be with you in this time of need.

Words can not express how we are all feeling, our thoughts and prayers are with your family.

My thoughts and prayers are for the healing of the families who have lost these five daughters and the children in your community who have lost their friends. It will be a difficult start to the school year.

Talk of them often, they are always near you.

Even though we have not met; our thoughts and prayers are with you & your community during this tragic, heart-breaking loss.

Our thoughts are with you at this most difficult time.

As you remember your wife Charlene and your daughters Aspyn and Madison ~~

Those we loved who are with us no longer,
Still comfort and guide us and make our hearts stronger.
Your wife and daughters left a legacy of love,

Angel of God, my guardian dear,
To whom God's love commits me here.
Ever this day be at my side,
To light and guard to rule and guide.

Support, strength and courage are sent to you.

My thoughts and prayers are with you.

Our thoughts and prayers are with you in your time of grief. May God, your family and your friends give you comfort and strength as each day passes.

Our thoughts, prayers and love sent to Duane, family, friends and community. May the Great Spirit give you strength as only you would know the pain. We lost all our children thirteen years ago in a car accident and the many words of comfort, prayers and visits from family, friends and other people in general has helped us each passing day. We send our deepest condolences and you are in our prayers.

Even though I don't know you, my thoughts have been with you since I heard of the tragic passing of your family. Having small children of my own, the thought of losing them is incomprehensible to me. Find strength in your friends and family - you will get through this terrible time in your life. There are so many who are praying for you and this has affected us all. Take care.

My deepest condolences to you and your family. I only knew Charlene through her work at the Humboldt Court House. She was always such a cheerful person, ready with a smile. We enjoyed chatting about our children each time we talked. My thoughts and prayers are with you.

To Duane and family, our thoughts and prayers go out and We hope God gives you the strength to carry on, which we know will be hard, Your friends Dixie Hiway Ken, Mike, Bob, Gregg

Duane and all of the other families affected by this tragedy.
My thoughts and prayers are with you all. May God grant you the strength and healing you will require. As this guest book shows, you are not alone, but in the hearts and minds of many. God Bless you and keep you.

Charlene and the girls where indeed angels brought to earth.

The girls never failed to make me smile the few times I was able to see them over the years.

As well I had the pleasure and honour of knowing Charlene for 24 years. She never failed to have a smile on her face.

Her god children Tanya & Rajiv will miss her and the girls greatly.

Our deepest thoughts and prayers are with the families of this tragedy.
May God have a special place for all these angels. I hope you all can stay strong for each other and walk with God each day to carry you through this time of need.
