She was born on March 16,1940 in Winston-Salem to the late Allen and Edna Crews. Charlotte graduated from Glenn High School and East Carolina University. She taught third grade for 27 years at Wallburg Elementary School until she retired in 1997 to care for her husband, Wade, in his journey with cancer.

In addition to her parents, Charlotte was preceded in death by her husband Wade, sister Anne Foster and brothers in law Bill Foster and George Eanes.   She was joyously greeted in Heaven by special nieces Kathy Foster Francois and Jennifer Eanes Holmes.  She was also preceded in death by her Bodenheimer family members, which included sisters and brothers in law, Lessie and Clyde, Cassie and Charlie, Mae and Kermit, Violet and Numa, and Charles.
