She was a great wife, mother and most admirable person. I shall miss her. My sincere condolences to her son and family.Surely she rests in the arms of our Lord.Due to pandemic I am sad that I cannot attend services for my true and beloved friend.
My sincere condolences to Petet and Melissa Charlotte was a good friend from our St Michaels Church where she was a devoted parishioner. I worked on many committees at St Michaels with Charlotte who always gave 100%. She always volunteered her time to help out wherever needed. Charlotte will be missed. May she RIP now reunited with her beloved husband Peter.
Charlotte was a big part of our lives. Fran knew her since she was a child and she and Pete were good friends to my dad Andy Cal. We also knew her through the societies at St Michael. She was a special lady
