Hi again, Charlotte; it's me, your old pal who keeps you close in my heart and thoughts. I get these reminders every year around the time of your departure from this mortal coil. I just want you to know that you're here inside my heart, thoughts, and memories, which I cherish - you'll always be a part of me.You are missed. Your life is still making a difference to us.

Missing Charlotte

I never stop missing Charlotte or her glorious smile, her wit, her genuine caring for the world and people in it, even the undeserving - I never stop longing to see her again or keeping her alive in my heart, my mind, my home, filled with little gifts she gave, things she wrote to me, her gorgeous art which I am honored to have and look at. I want those who love Charlotte to know I still love her so and that in our hearts and memories she is never forgotten. I hope people will write here and let's keep her alive in our stories, in our photos, in our memories, in our dreams and aspirations of who we want to be.

Charlotte was a light that was snuffed too soon - we will never forget her and all the goodness, beauty, and kindness she brought to this world. She was one of the most fun and creative people I ever knew; a fantastic artist, a wonderful mom and daughter. She had many friends and admirers, and we all miss her so much.

Charlotte will forever be one of the most beautiful souls I'll ever have the honor of meeting. I was always so happy to see her walk through the door because I knew that my day was about to be better than anyone else's. Nothing would make me smile brighter than when I'd see her little red-headed family around town in their yellow Volvo. I am so grateful to have met this lovely woman and shared so many smiles and laughs. She was a gift to the world and it's a bitter-sweet goodbye.

Such a terrible tragedy the world lost a shinning star an Angel who touch people in a way few ever do

Will miss you my dear friend and neighbor. I am glad I have had the chance to know you and spend the time I did get with you. You will always be an inspiration to me and will remember your great cooking! :-)

Dear everyone who knew and loved Charlotte - and still do, and always will - especially loving husband Noah Gunnell, and beloved daughter Rowan Rose, and Char's parents and adoring closest friends;

May we all strive to be even a tenth of the person she was. Every time we do some random act of kindness, may we do it in her name and memory. May we remember her beauty, generosity, goofiness, boundless love and compassion, creativity and artistry in everything she touched and cooked and made. May we all support her bereaved beloveds, and be there for them, as she always was for us.

Love you forever, Char. We will be here trying to do good in the world, as you would want us to.

You are one of the most beautiful (girls) women ever - see I can use girls :) Been many years and you are already missed. God be with you good lady and enjoy the rest of your adventure.

I was searching for an obituary and this striking photograph caught my eye. Thank you to the writer who shared the philosophy and actions of a moment that can now live on in me.
Without meeting, Ms. Gunnell affected me. What more can you ask of a lifetime, than to mark change.
-May the BLESSINGS of Love be upon You.

My beautiful friend I will truly miss you! You are the most giving, kind hearted person I know. Thank you for always being there for me no matter. You would always find a way to make me smile. I love you!
