"Charlene K. Vink-Vermere Rickards aka Mousey
December 25, 1956 to May 19, 2007

Charlene of the "Mousey Love Girls" (the blond
one with the glasses) died Saturday night at
10:30PM Pacific time of bone cancer.

Herb called me today with the news – she left
peacefully and with her loved ones at her side
to see her off. She was fortunately enough to
be conscious at the end and was able to tell
everyone goodbye seconds before she left.

Heh, I've always got so much to say on stuff
and yet now, when there's something important,
I can't really think of anything. : /

Good bye Char, we'll miss you…

(From CigarSkunk)"

After ten years of fighting, she finally passed to whatever lies beyond.
Though I never had the fortune to meet her, I knew of her and respected her.

I hope the Lord takes her in His mighty arms and bears her to the golden beyond.
