Charmaine is survived by John, her husband of 26 years, daughters Stephanie and Emily, brother Terry and mother Janet plus numerous aunts and uncles and their families.
Charmaine was a staunch advocate for individuals with autism, dedicating her life to ensuring greater support and inclusion. She loved to travel and enjoyed some wonderful trips with John and the girls. Her family asks that she be remembered not for her passing, but for the joy and love she brought into the world.
A devoted wife, mother, and daughter, Charmaine will be remembered for her kindness, warmth, and unwavering generosity. Her compassion touched everyone who knew her, and her laughter and love will be deeply missed.
