Charlotte Hall - ROBERTSON Born December 6, 1950 and passed away October 23, 2011. Sheddy to those who loved her! God took a gentle loving soul home to heaven. A life cut short by Alzheimer's, Charlotte was a very kind and loving person to everyone she knew. She loved the Lord and dreamed of the day she would see him, and the loved ones that had gone before her. Charlotte was a devoted wife, daughter, sister, aunt, and friend. Our dad once said of her "she never met a stranger", she befriended everyone, and was the definition of kindness! Charlotte was born to Ewell and Tina (Fudge) Hall, December 6, 1950 where she grew up in Rock Island and attended Rock Island Elementary, Sterling Junior High and Eastmont High School. After graduation Charlotte attended Revell's Beauty School and upon completion of her training in 1970, she went on to work as a hairdresser for more than 30 years. She married Leo Robertson in 1984 and moved to Missoula, Montana and then finally making their home in Troy, Montana. Charlotte loved her time in Troy and their beautiful home on the banks of the Kootenia River. Everyone was always welcome to come visit and she loved to have family and friends in her home. The first year after she and Leo were married he was diagnosed with a tumor on his spinal cord. After surgery he was partially paralyzed which required care from his wife. As a young bride she took to caring for her husband. She never complained and took pride in her duties as a devoted wife. She and Leo wintered in Nevada and Arizona for many years, and this was considered one of the best times of her life. Charlotte loved the warm weather and all the new people she would make friends with. In 2006, she lost her husband of 22 years, Charlotte then moved back to Wenatchee to be close to family. Shortly after that time, she was diagnosed with Alzheimer's. Family time was so special to her, she looked forward to the large family gatherings and the chance to spend quality time with everyone. Although she never had children of her own she embraced all of her siblings children and grandchildren and showered them with love. Charlotte was also a foster mother to Kim Shifflett from 1975 until her graduation from High School in 1980. She continued to be a part of Kim's life until her death.
