December 26, 1960, to the union of Charles Johnson and Viola Rideau,
at St. Monica Catholic Church of Eunice, Louisiana. She was baptized
at Our Mother of Mercy in Church Point, Louisiana.
Charlotte was a proud 1979 graduate of Basile High School. Charlotte
joined the Army, and later became part of Evangeline Parish School.
She was very good with children. Due to unforeseen circumstances,
she retired from the school. Never once did she let anything stop her
from living her best life.
Charlotte was a loving sister and confidant. She knew how to light up
the room when she walked in. Even more so, she knew how to make
you get up and dance. There was never a dull moment. She loved to
be around her siblings, nieces, nephews, her son, daughter, grand-
children, and daughter-in-law. Even when she had a bad day, she
didn’t complain, she made the best of it. Whether she got a call or visit,
she made every second of it count. She was such a joy to be around.
Charlotte wedded Cedric Bowser, and she gave birth to her son,
Jeremy Bowser. Jeremy meant the world to her. She and Jeremy
were mother and son, and friends. There is nothing she wouldn’t do
or sacrifice for him. The love she showed for her son was always
unconditional.
