Along with her husband, they supported various charities and religious organizations. Her Christian faith led her to help people in need. Charlotte remembered that in her early childhood when she was five years of age her father passed away causing her mother to be a single parent, to raise her four children by relocating to Winnsboro, South Carolina to seek work to feed her family. Above all, Charlotte was a deeply religious person, who trusted in the Lord and always prayed for her family and friends each morning and evening as she completed each day of her life. Charlotte was the treasure of her husband and family. We will miss her greatly!! Funeral services will be held Wednesday January 12, 2022, at St Genevieve's Catholic Church, 101 North Espina.
