Charlotte was a homemaker along with being a caregiver. She adored gardening and being surrounded by flowers. She enjoyed attending the summer community concerts. She also loved spending time with her family and friends, especially her grandkids, and will be greatly missed by all.

In lieu of flowers, the family encourages memorial contributions be made to Universal Home Health & Hospice in Bellefontaine.

In my Rose Garden of memories
I see you standing there
An angel in disguise
Who taught me how to care
I long to hear your voice
for real not in my dreams
I am missing you so much these days
how empty my world seems
People say time heals all wounds
that someday the pain will subside
But Grandma I can tell you
I think they must have lied
The emptiness I am feeling now
is strong and I am weak
These days go by without you
so dreary and so bleak
In my Rose Garden of memories
I know you'll always be
for though you're gone
from this mortal world
In my heart you'll always be

Zach, John Robert, Katie, Ryelee, Ayden and Abby
