Born in Orange, Texas, on November 3, 1946, she was the daughter of Leroy Forse and Vivian (Franklin) Forse. Charlotte was devoted to GOD, a faithful soul who always took the opportunity to be a witness to those she met. She loved going outside to work in her garden & flowerbeds, feeding & watching the birds and squirrels. Charlotte played piano & guitar and had a beautiful singing voice which she used for many years in church and at home. Christmas Holidays were her favorite time of year, always looking forward to her family singing and playing instruments. Her cooking and baking were not overlooked as Chicken & Dumplings were the family’s favorite. Spending time with friends and family meant everything to her and she bragged about her kids and grandkids constantly. She was a kind & loving wife, daughter, mother, sister, friend and a Nonnie. Thru her journey GOD molded her into the perfect Wife and Mother. Irreplaceable, she will truly be forever loved and missed.
