Many of you may know her from her youth spent in Copper Harbor with her grandparents Bill and Ida Bergh, climbing up the side of Brockway or attending school. For a short time, she fulfilled her dream of managing her Grandmother’s cottages and creating fond memories with her grandchildren. She truly embodied sisu, enjoyed flower gardening, crafting but most importantly spending time with her grandchildren. Charlene was known as the “heart” lady, surrounding herself and her home in hearts – just as she will forever live in ours.
