Kim and offer our deepest condolences to Louie and the whole family. We will keep you in our thoughts and prayers. I will forever cherish the many wonderful memories I have of our times shared together especially talking and laughing at brunch or simply chatting and catching up on the phone. It was always evident that family was so very important to you in everything you did and in the way you lovingly spoke about each of them. May God hold you forever in the palm of his hand and welcome you into the fold of angels in heaven. Well done good and faithful servant.

Louie and Family- we send our deepest sympathy to you all. Charlene was the best daycare provider that we could have asked for, she treated all of the children under her care as if they were a part of her family. She will always hold a special place in our hearts , as well as our son Anthony who she cared for in his early important developing years. May the memories be forever in our hearts and may she be forever in God’s hands. Rest in peace Charlene and we thank you for all the care and love you gave to so many.

I took care of Charlene many times the past 2 months at Barre Gardens. She was so sweet.

She cared more about her roommate being able to get by her bed and being quiet for her than herself.

I was deeply saddened to find she passed that morning. Her last words to me were "Thank you" like she always told me anytime I did anything for her, no matter how small.
