My fondest memories with Charla were the years we spent together being Brownie and Girls Scout leaders. Oh, and of course our years of being in the Bunco Babes!! Charla was such a gentle sole and had a very big heart! I will miss you my friend. Love, Jill

I am so sorry to the family for your loss. My deepest condolences. Char was so loving, joyful, positive, encouraging, kind and full of life. I remember her love for crafting, gardening, and garage sailing. I remember the beautiful hope gardens she made and the beautiful bracelets and necklaces she beaded. I also remember her love for her animals, miss Zoe, Maddie, Simon and her cockatiel Daisy. It was cause of Char that I got a cockatiel; she told me all about what it was like to own a bird. She loved so many and was loved by so many, she will be deeply missed! I miss her already !
Love,
Sarah
