Aunt Charlotte,
I know that you have now joined Uncle Dick, Mom and Brownie in God's version of the Rocking JR Ranch. I was blessed when I was place in this family and I will miss out movie afternoons and cooking dinners. I will always remember the wonderful example of love and giving that you set for all who had the chance to know you.
I will miss you. But I will also remember that you married Uncle Dick "for better, or for worse, but not for lunch!"
Lovingly your niece, Susan
