I was so sad to see that Charlotte had passed away!
I can only imagine her and Mom chatting away!
I was wondering if you plan to bring her home to Orion and place her beside Luther. If you were, were you planning on holding a service? I would not want to miss it. Last night I re-read what your Mom read at Mom's funeral, so precious! Thoughts and prayers are with you!
