Charlotte is preceded in death by her husband, Lester Putnam; her parents, Horace and Morene Bunch; and brother, Ronald Bunch.

Special thanks to Charlotte’s loving caregivers:  Montine, Terri, and Wanda.  Also, special thank you to Community Hospice nurses: Paula, Cindy, and Amber. 

The funeral service will be held on Tuesday, May 24, at 2 p.m., in the chapel of Love Funeral Home with Dr. Charlie Bridges officiating.  Burial will follow in West Hill Cemetery. 

Charlotte’s family will receive friends on Tuesday, May 24, from noon until the time of the funeral.
