Charity Hope Black-Hadick, 21, passed away suddenly on Tuesday, April 24, 2012 in Oklahoma City, OK, from complications involving a mass in her brain. Charity was born September 26, 1990 in Edmond, Oklahoma, to Stephen H. and Robin D. Black of Oklahoma City, OK.
Full of love, life, fun, and spunky, with a type-A personality, Charity Hope will be missed sorely by all those blessed to have shared life with her. She gave her life to Christ at eight, and was baptized by her father. She was homeschooled and attended C.O.A.C.H. in Norman, OK, graduating high school with a desire to pursue culinary arts and floristry. She dreamed of starting a business involving both. Charity enjoyed working at Outreach Thrift Store, a Christian, missional business seeking to bring glory to God. She also worked at Tony Foss Floristry, and loved her work with flowers. Charity made everything she touched beautiful.
She met her husband Brahk at Harvest Church in Oklahoma City. They were married October 10, 2010, and the day after Christmas found out they were getting a big gift: they were pregnant! Gabriel Joel was born August 20, 2011, and since that day, Charity has beautifully embraced the role of an affectionate, devoted mother and loving housewife.
Charity was preceded in death by grandparents, Howard and Rosanna Black, and Roy B Harrison, uncle Christopher Black, and aunt Mary Black-Lott. Survivors include her husband, Brahk C. Hadick; son, Gabriel Joel Hadick; her parents; sister Mandy S. Guevara (husband Joey); brother John S. Black; niece Michayla K. Black; grandmother Shirley Harrison; father- and mother-in-law Kent and Aniela Hadick; brother-in-law Baine Hadick; sister-in-law Rebecca Hadick, and many grieving family and friends.
Service will be held at 10:00 a.m. Monday, April 30 at First Southern Baptist Church of Del City, 6400 S. Sooner Road, Oklahoma City, OK. Interment to follow at Sunny Lane Cemetery, Del City, OK. For further information, or to leave condolences please visit www.eisenhourfuneral.com

My heart is ever so heavy! I really miss you precious!
Great loss creates a barren present, as if one is sailing on a vast sea of nothingness. Those who suffer great loss live suspended between a past for which they long and a future for which they hope. They want to return to the safe harbor of the familiar past and recover that which has been lost. Unfortunately memories of the past only remind them of what they have lost; hope for the future only taunts with the unknown too remote to even imagine in the great pain of grief. The problem with great grief of those who have suffered the loss of their child is they are deprived of familiar material from the painful present to envision joy in the future as it is too painful to see the loved one not there. It is too hard to conceive a future without your precious child, especially when they were tragically taken. The idea of joy in the future in the pain of the present for the parent to have to wrestle with is abhorrent. --
I love you Charity! Your Daddy...
This helps to give a very small peer into the window of the grieving parent's soul

Have mercy and be gracious unto me, O Lord, my God, for I am in great distress and trouble; with great grief my eyes are weakened, also my inner self, my soul and my body, my heart is broken... hear my cry Oh God, have mercy on the souls of my family. from Psa. 31:9
I love you Charity Hope! I love you so much, my whole soul, my heart and my body aches.

Charity, your family is a big part of our story. We have been close friends for almost thirty years. I have known you all your life. I still can't believe it was destined to be so short. You grew into a beautiful young woman, and I, like so many others, am so proud of you. Your memory will live on in our hearts and your son will carry a part of you forward into this world while you await us in the next. We love you . . . someday we will see you again . . .

Robin and Stephen, and Family, I know the Bible is true when it states, "How beautiful in the sight of God are the death of His godly ones.". However,i t is so hard to reconcile this truth with the tremendous pain and hurt and utter devastation in the loss of your precious Charity. I can see her now as a three-year old with bouncy long curls At Western Hills! I am lifting you up and asking for the presence of Jesus to lift you and overwhelm you more than grief. May you know His ways more deeply than ever before! Love, Teresa Burgess

Stephen, Robin, Brahk,Gabriel Joel & family:
The sorrow we feel for your your loss is beyond our ability to express in words. May you receive an ongoing filling of God's love and joy for the life of Charity and the privilege you had of rearing, knowing, loving and now honoring her. What a treasure for each of you to have had someone like her in your lives. I am reminded that too few people get to experience -in the flesh- love such as you have expressed. To God be the glory as you grieve and process.
We love you.

Stephen, I can't even imagine your grief at this time. But I also have trouble imagining you without the peace that passes all understanding from our Lord. I know He is uplifting you during this time and giving you the ability to get through something that no father ever wants to go through. He is your strength. I praise Him with you that Charity has begun her life with Him and that you will see her again. Blessings, my brother.

I can't believe you have left us. I was trying to plant flowers today and the grieft overcame me once again. I could see you in my mind smiling a comforting smile, as I stood in the flower bed sobbing. You are shinning like a diamond in heaven , flashing that dazzling smile of yours. We all miss you and love you so much!
