May God bless you and your family in this time of sorrow. Charlotte was a wonderful lady. She was a good friend of my Mother, Josephine Sigmon. When I visited my mother in Grand Jct., I made a visit to her house to purchase dish clothes that the Rebecca Lodge sold. I always enjoyed visiting with her. In 2006 we brought my mom here to Thermopolis, WY to live. In June of 28 Charlotte, Darlene and Margaret came to Thermopolis to visit my mom for a couple of days. They had a wonderful time. I took them to the Pizza Hut for lunch and got a nice picture of them. My mom passed away March of 2012.

If Roses grow in Heaven
Lord, please pick a bunch for me.
Place them in my Mother's arms
and tell her they're from me.
Tell her that I love her and miss her,
and when she turns to smile,
place a kiss upon her cheek
and hold her for a while.
Because remembering her is easy,
I do it every day,
but there's an ache within my heart
that will never go away.

My Mom was my tether. She kept me grounded in home and family and what all that meant. We were separated by miles and even on this day we still are. My heart is breaking that I'm not there to give you a final hug. I love you because you loved me, I love you for your strength, I love you for your tenacity, and mostly because of the love you shared with us, your children. I will miss you every day. I will take comfort in seeing you in the face of my sister, and the faces of my children and grandchildren. Without you there would be no us. Say hi to Dad, Virgil, and Jim. I love you and will miss you until we meet again

My memories of Charlotte were of a sweet, patient woman, especially when there were kids in and out of her home. She was a dear friend to my grandparents, Melvin and Ora Feller. I have many cherished childhood memories running between Charlotte's home and the Fellers'. May beautiful memories comfort Rita, Nora and Jim. Condolences to you all.

Charlotte was always kind and caring to me and I enjoyed all the things we got to do together over the years. Camping, rest-stops for the lodge, just hanging out and visiting. I will miss her greatly.

57 and 1/2 years ago when I entered this world I was separated from my mother by the cutting of the umbilical cord. However, all my life no matter where I was or what I was doing I always felt connected to my mom. On Saturday afternoon following her passing it suddenly occurred to me that the invisible umbilical cord no longer existed. For the first time in my life I no longer felt connected to my mom. That alone has made accepting her passing difficult to bear even knowing that she is with God, Jesus, the angels & all her family & friends who have gone before her. I pray that someday someway that connection can be restored if only for brief moments of times. I love you Mom more than words could ever express and you were the best Mom a girl could have ever asked for. Rest in Peace Mom and know I will carry you in my heart every moment of every day for the rest of my life.

I am so sorry and saddened over the loss of Charlotte. I was very blessed to have known and spent many hours with this amazing lady. I know how much Charlotte loved her family and was so proud of each of you all.
Charlotte and I sure had fun on our adventures out of the house as well as our many talks. Time spent was never wasted always treasured.
I will miss her greatly.
May you all find peace in knowing that she loved and cared for each of you. Always so proud.
May Charlotte fly with the angels and rejoice in her new life. Your angel will always live within your hearts and souls as no one can ever take that away.
All My Love
God Bless
