Charlotte, you were such a wonderful person, and I will miss our telephone talks. You will always be in my thoughts with wonderful memories of our East Orange days and our trip to Egypt. You've left behind a lovely family, of whom I know you were proud. I'm sorry I was unable to say good-bye. I will miss you! Barbara Hadzima
