I'm really going to miss working with Mrs. Charlotte at Omega. I enjoyed our little talks. Everyone loved her. She was such a caring and spiritual woman. I could always count on her prayers or her helping me find some instruments that were put away in the wrong spot. She was definitely one of a kind. I'm praying for peace and comfort for her family.
