There isn't a childhood memory I have that Aunt Charlotte isn't in. From playing in her home and her feed me with the rest of the family to her taking Pamala, Darrel and I trick or treating and I giving me rides home from cheer practice and ballgames. To giving me a ride to my first dance. Charlotte was always there for me. I spent more time at her home than my own growing up, she practically raised me. She was so cool when she caught Pamala and I smoking she didn't tell my parents, but she punished me herself, trust me there was no need to need to tell my parents. She was my second mom, and my favorite aunt. I am so sorry I didn't find out until after her funeral. I would have been there for my family. I will forever love and miss you Aunt Charlotte. You were the best.

I could tell a thousand Charlotte stories. I knew her from dialysis and was lucky enough to call her friend. She was a wonderful person and the world is a bit dimmer for her absence but I know her light shines above. I will miss her and all she meant to me.

So very sad to learn of Charlotte's passing. She was truly a dear friend and my Auxiliary President for many years. The Veterans of Foreign War have definitely lost a true patriot. Her love for her country and the Veterans that have served in the past and are continuing to serve, have to know that her dedication to them was beyond measure. Our deepest condolences to her family , whom she loved very much, may they find comfort in their memories of her. May she Rest in Peace.
