Charlene held a bilingual Bachelor of Arts degree from York University, as well as a Diploma in Library Techniques from Seneca College. She loved to read and write short stories, as well as to knit. Many of us are left behind with beautifully knitted mittens and scarves, lovingly crafted by her. In the early 1990s, Charlene supply-taught with the Durham Board of Education and taught French full-time at Duffin’s Bay Public School in Ajax, Ontario.
In later years, she worked with the Canadian Diabetes Association and was seen on TV commercials for Abbotts FreeStyle Libre Glucose System. Charlene was proud of her Metis heritage and often spoke in Parliament about her experiences living with diabetes.
Charlene loved to joke and was a detailed storyteller. She had a great sense of humour and enjoyed having fun. She was often heard exclaiming to her grandchildren, “Let’s be bad.” Charlene had a deep spiritual side and participated in many Bible groups and was last connected with Kingsview United Church in Oshawa. She will be greatly missed and mourned by many.
