Obituary of the Consummate Woman
http://www.legacy.com/obituaries/redding/obituary.aspx?n=charlene-williams-dale&pid=138505591
I want to be just like her when I grow up. (As if I could.)
My daughter in love and I always say, "What would Charlene do?"
We never saw Bob in any field or pasture, mending fences, rounding up cattle, without her right there at his side. She would be standing there in the back of the old pickup truck throwing hay to their herd while Bob drove.
Her energy and knowledge was never-ending. We thought.
I, the Antisocial Queen, loved having them over for dinner and going to plays and concerts with them.
We shared a love of books and crossword puzzles. I couldn't have adjusted to the ranch life without her. She is the one who told us that it wasn't polite to ask a rancher how many cows he owned. Now I'll never know if it's OK to ask about pigs. ☻
I have a feeling there are a lot of things I'll never know now.

How sad. I am so sorry for the huge loss you are feeling. Your friend, Charlene sounds like a great woman. She can tell you if you can ask about the pigs. Just talk to her. She will hear you and I think you will hear what should would answer.
I am just so sad for you, Lynn. I wish I could help you with the pain you are going through. Charlene sounds like she was a great person.
You will get through this, I know.

I am so sorry... But know what a blessing she was to you Lynn. ((Hugs)) ~tina
Sounds like God blessed you with a wonderful friend. I am so sorry, she will be missed. I too do not entertain, except for my children, so I know she had to be very special for you to have them over.
I'm so sorry for this huge loss in your life, Lynn. She sounds like she was a wonderful woman. And such a full life. I'm sorry that she was taken too soon. Kathy
I think she would love these words...
What a caring tribute.
I never knew she was the Princess of Friendship. Actually, when I think I about it, I think I did know that already. Nevermind.

...and she was a July person. We July people understand each other.
Charlene sounds like a wonderful person. May she rest in peace. How is her husband coping? I know you must be helping him.
Keep her memory alive.
