My condolences to Charlene´s family. I was her chemo sister in this cancer fight. She filled my chemo days with smiles and laughter. When they changed our days we´d look for each other on Dr visit days to chat and hug. She is so missed. Bless all of you.

My condolences to the Mitcheltree Family. I am a former coworker and Charlene and I worked together for 13 years. She was a delight to work with. She was naturally funny and witty. She loved her family, and her husband, Dan, was the love of her life. I always appreciated their love and admiration for each other. She faced her health challenge with a positive attitude and so much fortitude. Rest in peace, Charlene. I will never forget you.

Dear Dan & family,
My sincere sympathy to you all! What a pleasure it was growing up with Charlene! She was always so nice & quiet.
Many years have passed since Girl Scouts and working on the yearbook for Staff Club, getting back to school late after Dairy Queen lunch and many many laughs along the way.
May she Rest In Peace!
