Charlotte was such a strong force of love, laughter, and support for the Ruiz family. I always enjoyed my conversations with her and watching her engage with everyone when I was at family gatherings. My parents, Otto and Irene Machala, considered Charlotte a good friend and extended family member. I am glad she is now with them drinking her beer and adding to the lights of heaven above. My love and prayers go out to the Ruiz family as they send Charlotte off to the big German beer hall in the sky to be with Jesse, Vi (my wonderful Aunt), my parents and may others who have arms open for this warm hearted woman who lived a great life with her family.
