Charlene, we also met in grade 8. You were a wonderful friend, a part of my family, my children grew up with you as their “Auntie Charlene”. I remember the moment you told me you were moving to E., Alberta and I am thankful that I was able to visit you there so often. Even now, I still miss you so much and think about you often.
Charlene my dear friend. We met in Grade 8 and remained friends till she passed away. Charlene you were a true friend that cannot be replaced. I think about you all the time and wish I could call you. We will meet again in heaven. You are at peace.
