Charlene was baptized as one of Jehovah's Witnesses on July 21, 1984 and never missed an opportunity to tell others about her faith. She was well known for her hospitality. Charlene often had friends by to enjoy her baking and company. She remained an active and valued member of her congregation in Buzzards Bay.
