Dear Sara Lynn and family: I am so sorry for your loss. Aunt Charlotte was a very special aunt who had great patience, perseverance, love and talents. I will always remember Christmases at our house with Aunt Charlotte, Aunt Loretta and Aunt Betty and their husbands. We had great times spent with family, which is slowly dwindling. We will all get to celebrate Christmases in heaven once again some day. Go rest high on that mountain Aunt Charlotte with Uncle James, Grandmother McGraw and brothers Leonard (my dad), and Charles. Love, hugs, kisses, and prayers to the family. Your cousin, Terry
