Charlotte was born November 29, 1936, the daughter of Louis and Maxine (Hughes) Mertka. She was a graduate of Springville (IA) High School. On August 10, 1955, Charlotte married Rod Dunlap at the Little Brown Church in Nashua, IA. They had celebrated 55 years of marriage. Charlotte and Rod lived in Linn County prior to moving to the Oxford area. Rod was Director of the Johnson County Conservation Board. They lived on the grounds of Kent Park from 1970 to 2001. Charlotte loved making a home for her family. She enjoyed time spent outdoors camping. Charlotte played cards, especially 500 and pinochle, and was an avid reader of romance novels. Most important was her family and grandchildren. “Our mother and grandmother was a Queen. When we think of her, it is her smile we see and her laughter we hear. We feel the love she planted deep within each of us. We will remember her by living the rest of our lives smiling. Goodbyes are not forever, they are not the end, we will miss her until we meet again” Charlotte is survived by three daughters, Brenda Verry of Clear Lake, Sue (Rich) Rugger of Oxford, Kathy McDonald (Murray Cave) of Swisher; her son, Gail (Cyndi) Dunlap of Swisher; eight grandchildren, John Verry, Chelsie (Tom) Frelund, Kelly (Ryan) McLarney, Brooke (Anthony) Walls, Michael Rugger, Tyler Dunlap, Mitchell Dunlap, and Chad Eckrich; three great grandchildren, Logan, Cullen, and Hadie Mae Frelund and one great grandson in the oven, and four sisters-in-law.
