Charlotte attended first through eighth grades at St. Peter Lutheran School in Holyrood, Kansas. She highly valued and deeply treasured her Lutheran parochial school education. Charlotte graduated from Holyrood High School in 1942. Following high school, she attended Wichita Business College in Wichita, Kansas. A few years later, Charlotte met her future husband, Richard Popp, on a blind date. They were married at the height of World War II on August 12, 1945 at St. Peter Lutheran Church in Holyrood, Kansas. The Lord blessed their union with three children: Richelle, Royce and Chris. Charlotte knew her primary call was to be a loving wife to Richard and a devoted mother to her three children. She worked both full and part time throughout the years at various companies, usually doing bookkeeping and administrative assistant work. Charlotte has resided in Midland since 1979 where she was employed for a number of years as a pharmacy tech at Walgreens. Throughout her life Charlotte loved attending church, the Lutheran Women’s Missionary League, various Bible studies, and was an ardent supporter and member of the Gideon’s Auxiliary. She found great joy in sharing God’s Word with others. Her strong faith in her Lord and Savior Jesus Christ was apparent in all her conversations in every area of her life. Charlotte’s eyes were filled with kindness and love for others. She gave great hugs, had special appreciation of the gift of time, valued her relationships, was a great friend, and loved her family deeply. Charlotte is and will continue to be deeply missed. Her sweet smile would light up any room.
