Q: Where did Charlotte like to travel?
A: Mom loved Florida. I’ve never seen somebody light up so much as when she talked about going to Florida walking on the beaches, barely getting her feet in the water because she was afraid of the water but she did. The most enjoyment she got in Florida was going to Disney and all the parks, she would just light up talking about it.
I miss you very much mom every day. Thank you for all your recipes, Mom was a great cook and she even wrote out all of her recipes when her kids moved out of the house so we have them in her handwriting and we know a bunch of different options when we run out of ideas we’ll have it forever.
Q: What was one of your favorite qualities of Charlotte?
A: Charlotte was a very kind person, honest, generous and loving. She always offered solid advice up to her last days of life on this earth. I will forever be grateful for her love and advice.
You were loved!
