In lieu of flowers, a contribution to the Scottish Rite Children’s Hospital in Dallas, the Ronald McDonald House, or a charity of your choice in Charlotte’s name would be appreciated.
Charlotte adored the yellow poppies on the Franklin Mountains. If you wish, we ask you to plant similar golden poppies in her memory in late October. She would love that this might remind you of her during their next bloom.
