I met Charlotte through our friend Juanita Treis,
at the American Legion Ladies Auxiliary Post 111.
Charlotte contributed so much of her time to both
the Auxiliary and the Fish Fry’s.
What a wonderful friend and mentor we’ve all lost.
Rest in Peace.

I am so sorry to hear of Charlotte’s passing. She was a dear American Legion Post 111 friend to my mom and dad, Jan and Chuck Kemp. My mom had great fun together serving with Charlotte in the Legion Auxiliary. Charlotte was always kind and hard working, my mom and dad enjoyed working fish fries with her,and doing the shows hosted by the Legion with the singing, dancing and having fun at their dances. I remember meeting your mom several times, such a nice lady. We just lost my dad in March of this year, and I know your parents and mine are reunited again. Peace and comfrot to all of you.
