Charlene, you fought a long battle with pain and unhappiness and try and might as you did you never could seem to find the happiness you were looking for. I loved and cherished the time we spent together. I always enjoyed cooking for you and Eddie and sharing the holiday like we were family. Charlene, you will be surely missed, but you have gone to a better place and you are no longer hurting and I know you are with Robert now too. RIP my friend. I miss you and love you. RIP.

Charlotte,

I have looked so many years to find you and your Mom. I am so saddened to hear of her passing. I have missed our laughs and overnight stays. So many years have passed but I have kept yall in my heart and in my prayers. I know your Mom is looking down on you with a smile, that smile that shined so brightly. I know the days will be hard without her but you now have a guardian angel to watch over you. I send my love and prayers to you.

Love Always,
Sharon Dixon Dowden
