...
We left Hardee's and went up Irish Cut to visit with Charlene (Rathbone) Brown. She was in a bad way physically but mentally the same ole Charlene I've known since we were children. She is Charlie's first cousin and we both think she is a wonderful person. She is constantly in our prayers and will be until the good Lord gets her ready for her heavenly home. She has been ready for along time and I'm so glad for her.
...
Saturday morning I got a call in my motel room that Charlie's first cousin, Charlene (Rathbone) Brown had passed from this life to her better home.
...
Sunday evening we went down to Brown Funeral Home along with almost all our church that closed up so folks could go to the viewing of Charlene (Rathbone) Brown who had a lot of relatives at our church and her father, the late Raymond Rathbone, was a member. We got to Brown's around six and there was barely standing room only. Everyone really wanted to keep her here but her number was up and her new home was ready and we all will greatly miss her. Charlene and I grew up together and always good friends even before our marriage into the Rathbone family and we were good neighbors to each other too. We did not get to the burial Monday morning because we had a sick girl here that needed to go to the doctor and had to miss two days of school too.
