Anna Charline went by the nick name, “Charla” throughout her adult life. She grew up in
Corpus Christi and spent the summers in Fort Worth on her loving Grandparents farm. She
married and relocated to San Antonio where she had her girls. As a child, Charla wanted to be a
mom and a homemaker. She sewed her daughter’s clothes during their adolescent years.
Sewing would turn out to be her lifelong passion. Another of her many talents was her amazing
cooking! She was an avid reader and enjoyed music. One of her fondest memories was seeing
Elvis in concert! Charla spent most of her life studying her family Genealogy. Later in life, she
went back to Fort Worth where she would care for her Mother. She spent 21 years with her
sweet husband, Billy. Her most special times was spent with her husband, grandchildren and
going on trips with her kids. She loved working at Hancock Fabrics, owning and cooking at her
own café, and working at Walgreens being a beauty consultant. Charla was a beautiful lady that
is dearly loved & missed!
