Jabo and family, You have my deepest sympathy. When I was driving home last night,I was thinking about Charlotte and what she gave me when I graduated from high school(many moons ago)--a black bucket purse). I will never forget that and I will never forget what a wonderful woman Charlotte was. May she rest in peace and all of you find happiness in knowing that she is in a much better place. Love, Dorothy

Please accept my deepest sympathy in the loss of your mother. She was such a kind and pleasant lady. The last time I saw her she had her youngest grandchildren at McDonald's. She remarked to me what a joy it was to be a grandmother, and it was apparent by how she interacted with them. Please know that your family is in my thoughts and prayers.

Dear Tracy, I am so very sorry to hear about the loss of your Mom. I lost my Dad 4 months ago to a 6 month battle of lung cancer and I know the pain you and your family are going through. I also know your Mom fought a courageous battle with her cancer. May you find comfort in knowing that she is now in a place free of pain and suffering. Your many, many memories will give you the strength to get through this sad time along with keeping her close to you always. (My Dad is always with me.) You and your family will be in my thoughts and prayers. Please accept my most deepest sympathy. PAM

Jabo, Tracy, Jimmy & Family, I hope I can put into words how I felt about my friend Charlotte. She was not just my friend, she was like a sister to me. Charlotte never met a stranger. She never forgot a birthday or anniversary She never missed sending Missy a card of engouragement on the anniversary of her accident If you couldn't be with family on a holiday, she welcomed you into her family and you felt as though you belonged there. Not only was she a beautiful person outside but she was even more beautiful inside. I will miss that beautiful smile. She was the glue that held everything and everyone in place. I hope there will be someone who can take over where she left off even if they can't do it as well as she did. I feel I knew her so well. What she liked and didn't like. She didn't like butter, green peppers or onions. I used to ask her how she could cook without peppers or onions. She liked Chardonnay, lunch with friends, pinepapple, heath bar blizzards, her eggs scrambled dry and dry toast, but most of all she loved her family. I will never forget all the good times we had together. I will never forget her and will miss her so much. So to Charlotte and her family, "Bless my friends, for they are gold; the riches of my heart and soul. May I be worthy of such a treasure and ever thankful for this pleasure." I do feel very blessed that I was able to have a friend like Charlotte. Not everyone gets that opportunity. So I say to Charlotte, "I love you and God bless you". Love Helen
