Charlene grew up in Oak Hill, Fl., eventually settling in Massachusetts where she became a stay-at-home mom to her four daughters. Later in life returning to her hometown of Oak Hill, FL which she loved.
Charlene loved cooking and could create a meal from any ingredient. There were many hobbies she loved, but collecting everyone's dead plants and bringing them back to life brought her the most joy. Going to the casino, sitting by the ocean or river, and playing a competitive game of baseball at a family cookout were most enjoyable to her.
There wasn't a song she didn't know sang by Elvis. She was his #1 fan.
Charlene was welcomed in heaven with open arms by her Mom, Alvetta Mae Goodrich, Dad, William Edward Goodrich and many brothers. Harry (Jake) Goodrich William (Bud) Goodrich James (Babe) Goodrich Calvin Goodrich Carl (Pee Wee) Goodrich
