Charlotte Jolene Lytle, 83, passed away on April 23, 2022, at Valley View Senior Life, Junction City, after a long battle with Alzheimer's disease. Cremation will take place. A memorial service will be held August 6, 2022.
She was born to Albert and Iva (Cooper) Stevenson on June 27, 1938.
Charlotte was a fun loving, generous person who loved all the simple things in life. Driving by a patch of wildflowers would always require an immediate stop. She could look at and pick those beauties for hours and even made pictures with real pressed flowers. She loved singing and had a lovely voice. She was really in her height of glory with her family singing and all taking turns. Charlotte never needed material things to make her happy, just love, hugs, and togetherness. She was never afraid to love life and often could see it through the eyes of a child. She was constantly dancing, singing, eating candy, and being carefree. She was a homemaker most of her life with a few jobs here and there.
Charlotte was married a couple of times and those marriages produced five children: Tim Lytle (Debbie) of Abilene, KS, Monty Lytle (Jan) of Salina, KS, Guy Lytle (Vicki) of Sacramento, CA, Charles Fletcher (Sheng Yen) of Beaumont, TX, and a beautiful daughter, Gaylene Beach, who passed away August 11, 1996. She is also survived by 18 grandchildren and 12 great-grandchildren and many nieces and nephews who loved her as that Silly Aunt Char.
She will be greatly missed but knowing she is hugging her daughter once again gives us comfort.
Charlotte was preceded in death by her parents and all of her siblings: Shirley Reed, Steve (Bud) Stevenson, Bob Stevenson, Mary Carolyn Schmidt, Bert Stevenson, and Charlie Stevenson.
