It's hard to believe it's almost been a year since we lost Charla.  I have been meaning to let you know about the electronic book I bought for our library in Charla's honor:  https://library.missouri.edu/news/category/lottes-health-sciences-library/page/2  -Diane Johnson

Lynn,
I have fond memories of Charla bringing Natalie to the office for checkups and illnesses, now many years ago. So sorry for your loss. I will keep you in my prayers.
John

We were so saddened by Charla's passing.  I always enjoyed our time on the sidelines while our girls danced at DanceArts and/or while they played tennis at Hickman.  Charla was cheerful and fun and a great companion.  I know she will be greatly missed.

I thought you might like to see a picture of Charla back when she was one of the Golden Girls.
May God bless you all.

Our friendship began in Moberly, MO in 1986.  Charla was one of my most caring, sweet, generous, and supportive friends.  She was a true friend. I will always remember her support during one of the hardest days of my life and celebrating one my happiest days with me and my family.   

Griff and I send our love and prayers to Lynn, the girls and your families.   She was a terrific wife and mom and will be missed by all who called her their friend.  

Charla was my maid of honor in 1967.  Fun, funny, generous, kind, and talented in so many ways, she was a special friend all these years.  John and I will keep you all in our hearts and trust that your memories of all the good times with her bring comfort and joy.
