Always such a sweet and caring person… I know the warm memories you shared will see you through these difficult time.My thoughts and prayers are with her family at this time.
Charlotte was such a nice, nice person, in school and at the dentist's office. The first day I walked into the office and Charlotte and I saw one another, we laughed and laughed. We thought it was going to be a little strange, having been classmates. But it wasn't at all. Knowing Charlotte would be there made going to the dentist a little bit easier.
Charlotte was the most humlbe person I have ever known. She was always kind and a thoughtful person. The world will miss her but her legacy will live on in her friends and family. To her family, I am sorry for your loss. Donna Mancuso

I am so sorry to hear of Charlottes passing. Charlotte and I were dear friends in elementary and high school. We spent many days and nights together and went everywhere together. After school we lost touch with each other and went our separate ways. I have very many fond memories of Charlotte and her great family. My thoughts and prayers are with her family and you must always remember the great memories that you all shared.
I am so sorry to hear of Ms. Sibley's loss. She was a very active and important part of my life as a child and always laughed and encouraged her children and friends in everything we did. Her death came as a shock to me and I am just so sorry for Cari, Cim and Chriss. I'm sending my most sincere thoughts your way. Stacie Langley
I have many happy memories of time spent at the Dumatrait's house when we were in high school and time spent riding in Charlotte's Chevy Nova. Deepest Sympathy to Charlotte's family,Nell CampbellNell Campbell
I remember Charlotte as being a beautiful, kind, sweet, wonderful person. She always had a smile on her face and I don't think I ever heard a negative word come from her mouth. I lost touch with Charlotte after high school and am so sorry that I did. We were friends throughout high school and I valued that friendship. I know she will be missed by many and I am so sorry for your loss.
I remember the first time I met Charlotte in my brother-in-laws Dental Office. She was always the most pleasant, cheerful and gracious woman I ever met. A true example of a lady! Warren, my husband, and I give the family our condolences and we will be praying for you. And as my Sister-in-Law, Polly, said, I'm sure Warren's mother greeted her in heaven and they are having a wonderful conversation now! 🙂
I was a classmate of Charlotte's, class of 1964. I didn't know we shared a birthday. Charlotte always had a friendly smile for everyone and always looked her best. I remember thinking that she looked great at every reunion, outshining all the rest of us. Be at peace, beautiful lady.
I worked with Charlotte for 17 yrs. side by side at Dr. Paul Vidrine's office…She was my precious friend; we were very close, very much like sisters…She was the most kind, loving, giving, humble,spiritual and funny lady one could know…We shared all of our sorrows as well as all of our joys…we held each other up through the rough times and laughed til we hurt cried through the joyful happy times in our lives…I will never forget her beautiful (and white,ha) smile and her kind and gentle heart…My deepest condolences to her family and her children and grandchildren for whom she lived and sacrificed her life…I will love you forever Poopi and hope to see you in paradise some day…I will never forget your deep devotion to our Blessed Mother…I know She walked you through the gates of heaven to eternal peace and love…Miss you so much…
My first thoughts are her smile and laugh. I have the most amazing memories of Charlotte. I wish I could be there to hug you guys. Love you all.
