Charlotte Mae Dillon went to be with Jesus Tuesday, September 2 surrounded by all of her children who spoke words of love to her, prayed with her and sang hymns as she passed into Jesus' arms. She was just a little shy of her 84th birthday, but as the Lord would have it, she celebrated her birthday several weeks ago with a wonderful party.
As her birthday of September 10 nears, we've come to realize she'll have her real party in heaven with loved ones she has not seen for a while. She is, right now having a grand reunion with Bob, her husband of almost 65 years. We love you, Mom, and we're happy for you. We miss you, but we'll be with you soon.
Well, what Mom mostly did with her life is raise us kids. Bob and Charlotte came to the Central Coast in December 1956 with Bobby, Sandy, Peggy and Diana in tow, leaving industrial Toledo, Ohio to make their own way in life. They lived in Whitley Gardens, Paso Robles, Atascadero and settled in Santa Margarita in 1962.
Donna was born to them when they lived near Atascadero Lake. Quality of life was very good here in those early days, and we kids will ever be grateful to Mom and Dad for their pioneer spirit. They left everything to give us a good life.
Mom had a very green thumb, and everything she planted prospered. There was a time when she had so many potted plants hanging on her front porch that it was hard to get in the door to see her. She loved her plants, but mostly talked about her family and about Jesus, so anyone who got near her was going to get an earful either about how well a grandchild was doing or about how much Jesus loved her. She encouraged us kids to do well in school and that has helped us all.
