My prayers are with all family & friends of Charlotte! I will always remember her & the “good times” we had together in our “younger” years. She is resting peacefully and we are missing her deeply. Be strong and move forward as she would not want to see us sad but continue to carry on her memory and be happy! Sorry I cannot be there to see her before she is laid to rest!
