Charlene was a gentle sole with a kind word for everyone. She was one of those people who did not have to tell you that she was a Christian, you just knew by her words. We have no doubt where she is now. Thinking of you all and pray you are at peace.
With Love

I spent many years with Charlene in my BSF class and as a dear friend. She was so special and taught me to talk to God in his language - the Bible. Now she even looks like a saint!
Prayers for special comfort for all the family from the author of comfort - God himself.

Dear Dr. Phillips and Family,
I was so sorry to read about your Mom's passing. She was a very pretty woman, and I immediately saw how much you favored her! I met your Dad at Briarwood Rehab several years ago when my stepfather was there. He was such a hoot! Hope he is coping with her loss and doing okay. Thoughts and prayers to all...

I send my warmest thoughts and prayers to her family. Praising our Lord that He has called her home. Charlene was my first Bible Study Fellowship teacher in 1978-79. What a blessing she was as we studied Genesis! She gave her class a scripture on May 17, 1979, Colossians 1:2-12, and asked us to pray for one another. I think of her every time I see my note in my Bible.

My dear friend Charlene is dancing with Jesus today. We spent several years together in Bible Study Fellowship and I have many delightful memories of her and Charles. Heaven is a brighter place today.
I pray God will comfort her family as only He can.
