Charlotte lived in Pennsylvania, California, Texas, Virginia, Kansas, and Hawaii – finally settling in Kansas. Charlotte’s loves included faith, family, cooking, fishing, camping, bowling, playing card games, getting her nails done, watching sports (anything her kids/grandkids were in, Jayhawks and Chiefs), and playing Bingo!

So sorry to hear about Aunt Charlotte. My mom just told me that Uncle Fred gave her the news.
Steve, Vickie and family – my family and I are so sorry for your loss. Charlotte was a wonderful lady and will be greatly missed.
