Kenny and family,
The Faith in God and Love you have in God will get you all through.
I met Charlene at G. W. Carver Elem. School in the mid 90’s. She was so bubbly. She always had a smile on her face. We were a close family because of the department we worked in. After she left Carver, our paths crossed again when my daughter got married. I was surprised to see her and she was surprised to see me. Although I hadn’t seen her in a long time, I will remember HER SMILE.
So special, super cool, funny, smart, Charlene…you can’t help but love her. I will miss her smile.
Sleep well my beautiful cuz.. Love u
Charlene, one of the sweetest person you could meet and know. Gentle, soft-spoken with the prettiest smile that would brighten your day, when you came in contact with her. Charlene was loved by family, friends and those that was like family. Gone but will never be forgotten. Rest in heavenly peace Charlene with your Heavenly Father.
Charlene was always a sweet person and whenever you saw her she will always smile no matter what the problem was she will always give you a smile. Rest in your heavenly fathers arms.
