  1. Newburgh INI went to grade school and high school with Char. We are also first cousins.
    She was a beautiful lady who suffered more then anyone should have had to.
    She carried her cross bravely and never once complained to me.
    She had a engaging smile for everyone.

    I pray for the repose of her soul and my sympathy and prayers go out to Auntie Pauline and all of her family.

    Love and Peace

  2. Troy NYMy sympathies go out to the members of Charlotte’s extended family. My memories of Charlotte are primarily from when we were children. When the Deichert family would travel from far away West Fargo to St. Gertrude in Raleigh, ND
    to visit. My brother, Gerry, and I loved to play with Charlotte and Karen. It was always an exciting time and Charlotte was so wonderful and full of life and always ready to laugh.

  6. I am so sorry for your loss. May “the God of all comfort” (2 Corinthians 1:3,4) comfort and soothe your heart. His promises, found in the Holy Scriptures, can offer much hope.
