So sorry to hear of Charlotte's passing. Our thoughts are with you all at this difficult time. Charlotte was a wonderful person, caring and very generous. When we were newly married at Sandy Hook both Charlotte and Richard always were there for us, providing us with support and wonderful advice. We stayed overnight for the Gimli Country Fest at their home in Wpg Beach and woke to the aroma of Charlotte's breakfast and Richard serenating us with his guitar. Charlotte will be missed but I'm sure she left you all with her wisdom and love to treasure forever. Rest in Peace Charlotte! - Posted by: Wade & Shannon Bilodeau (Family friends) on: May 13, 2024
