Our thoughts are with the family. Charlotte was a big part of our lives along with the whole family. Memory's of Nana yelling at the baseball players on her favorite Met's team or watching family feud with her calling the game show host "kissy". Even playing hours of Yathzee with her. She has been missed thru the year & will continue in to the future. My mom & I tell my kids about Nana & the memories we have of her & the her family. Deepest sympathy to the family.
