I met Charlotte many years ago when we were working together at Twistee Treat until it closed. We played a lot of cards and board games (it’s what you do when you’re from the north) and we would cut up and laugh until late into the night. She was someone who you could tell anything to and never worry about being judged. She was a very hard worker and could run circles around others half her age. My friends and I surely miss her contagious laughter.
Aunt Charlotte will be remembered as a kind and loving woman who cared deeply for her girls. As one of her nephews, I will always remember how much compassion she showed to me during distressful times. May she rest in peace.
Aunt Charlotte, I have so many memories of you from the time I was a toddler when you would bring Eileen over to play with me & sing the songs from Mary Poppins & Chitty-Chitty Bang Bang, to the days I lived with my Dad in Fort Myers with his girlfriend & you would rescue me & feed me white pizza. Then all the years I would visit FL in the summer and you always made sure to spend time with me. I will always remember your laughter, your generous spirit and the love you showed you me, even though I was only your neice by marriage. I’m so glad I got to see you the last time you were here a few years ago. I would say rest in peace, but I like to think your fun has just begun.????
When I was in my late teens through my early 20’s my sister Charlotte invited me to live with her and my nieces Eileen & Lisa in Cape Coral. We not only lived together but worked together, as well, she hired me to work at the hotel she was managing, let me use her car so I could go to work and go out & have fun with friends. I have fond memories of her bringing me & the girls sometimes with our friends from work to local beaches, restaurants, local tourist stops or just hanging out at home with friends. It was the best of times for me at that time. Although there was 1500 miles between her & the family in New York, over the years, many of us visited her or she would visit up north, so I’m thankful we had that time together and those memories. I loved her, I love her still and I’ll miss her. Sending prayers & hugs to my nieces and the rest of the family there in Florida. I’m thinking of you all, with love.
I only met you a couple of times of course at the Casino. In only those couple of times I saw a very sweet and funny person. I always wondered where your daughter Lisa got her amazing personality. I know now. Rest In Peace.
My grandmother was a great lady. She will be missed by everyone! Thank you to everyone who leaves comments. I hope you share some great stories of her!
