She was a member of Buck Creek Christian Church for over 30 years.

She was preceded in death by her beloved husband, Jack Clifford Fuquay; son-in-law, Steve Houk; daughter-in-law, Myra Fuquay; as well as her siblings, Willie, Jimmy, and baby Nancy.
Charlene treasured her time in the cabin that Jack built. There were many fond memories that were shared with family and friends there at Sweetwater Lake. As we say goodbye to Charlene, we celebrate the woman she was and the mark she left on the world. Her impeccable yard was a testament to her dedication and love for gardening, a hobby that provided her with immense joy and a way to share her creativity with family, neighbors and friends. All that knew her will treasure their memories, like a perennial garden that blooms year after year.
