Charlene (Charli) Babson passed away at the age of 53, on October 20, 2025. Charlene went to sleep and did not wake up. Born in 1972, Charlene was the first grandchild in a large, loving family, bringing immense joy to her parents, grandmothers, aunts, and uncles.

Charlene excelled in everything she pursued, from school and academics to gymnastics, dancing, and cheerleading. Known for her loving nature, she brought many friends into her home, who remain considered family to this day. Her son, Nathan, was the light of her life, and their travels across the country for baseball created a second family among teammates and their parents.

Recently, Charlene welcomed her 77-year-old mother into her home, ensuring she would never have to reside in a nursing home. With a passion for people and animals, Charlene brought warmth and joy to everyone she met. Her passing will be deeply mourned, but her memory will live on in the hearts of family and friends. Charlene is now reunited with her father, aunts, and grandparents, who will watch over her.

In accordance with her wishes, a celebration of life will be held in her honor, filled with happy memories and laughter, just as she wanted.

"I want no sadness just happiness at my celebration of life party, no sadness just happy memories; a real party!"
