Charlotte Mankin, age 61, passed away peacefully at home Saturday, April 8. 2023. Charlotte was born Thursday, June 1, 1961 to Billy and Carolyn McMillan in Helena, Arkansas. Charlotte was a true example of God's love. She was a loving, caring, giving, generous person. She would give her last penny or shirt off her back if she thought someone needed it. She never expected anything in return. She was always smiling and happy. She loved to sing and led the music at West Acres Baptist Church for several years. During her life at Mother Goose, she loved teaching kids, rocking babies and playing with them. She would always sing "Jesus Loves Me" to the babies while she rocked them. All the children loved her and she was known as the Baby Whisperer. Charlotte also loved doing crafts, riding to the river and drinking diet coke. Her positive outlook on her illness and on life was always "God's got this!".
