She was always a friendly face when I saw her. I’m so sorry for your loss.
I loved Charlene she always had something funny to tell you in every situation! I’m praying for the family.
My condolences to the McMahill family. Charlene always welcomed my daughter in her home like one of her grandchildren!! While I was Bella’s caregiver I got to bring her out to see her memaw at John Knox a few times and have great visits with her!! RIP Charlene
I really enjoyed spending time with Charlene, she helped me (well fixed) the afghan that I tried to crochet. I think of her every time I get it out, it will remain a special memory to me. My condolences on your loss. She touched many lives.

“I will lift up mine eyes unto the hills from whence cometh my help: My help cometh from the Lord”
To Courtney and the entire McMahill family,
I was very sorry to hear of the passing of your mom Charlene McMahill.
We don’t always know the reasons God does what he does, when he does. But Time is God’s Gift.
Wishing all your hearts will always be filled with warm thoughts and treasured memories of MOM.
May God continue to bless your family and I pray your strength in the Lord.
Charlene was one of the sweetest women I ever had the honor of knowing. My deepest sympathies go out to her family and loved ones.
