d. July 1, 2014
Charlotte J. Epstein, 87, passed away July 1, 2014. She was born in Indianapolis to the late Solomon and Esther Toback,, Polish immigrants who came to America for a better life.
As a lifelong resident of Indianapolis, she went School 22 and graduated from Manual High School.
Her life was based on 3 pillars: Family, Faith, Friendships.
Charlotte was preceded in death by her parents, her husband, Samuel, her sister, Rose, and her daughter, Carol. She is survived by her daughter, Paula Fogle (Ned), son, Joel (Debbie), grandchildren, Aaron Fogle, Sam Epstein (Adrianne), and Jessie (Adam), who all adored her. She was also blessed to have four great-grand children, Charlie Epstein, Teddy Epstein, Leah Fogle and Jon Fogle, to whom she was Bubby Schaindel. She also leaves several nieces, nephews and cousins whom she also loved very much. To her, family was more precious than gold.
Charlotte was a devoted long time member of Congregation B'nai Torah and its Sisterhood. To the many children who regularly attended services, she was the "Candy Lady" She always had sweet treats for kids of all ages.
Charlotte had many friends both near and far whom she enjoyed keeping in touch. Her beautifully hand written letters and cards were legendary and kept by many. Sunday mornings were spent checking in with her friends and family coast to coast.
Charlotte was involved in many organizations. She was a lifetime member of B'nai Brith Women, Hadassah, AMIT, City of Hope, and ORT.
Charlotte had a terrific sense of humor and philosophical wit. She always had a joke, story, or tidbit of wisdom to tell. Even when her health was failing, she maintained her terrific story telling ability to make others feel good and smile. She would have been a great standup comedian! Many of the staff at Hooverwood, where she spent her final days, would stop by her room to hear a joke or story so they could leave work with a laugh and a smile.
Funeral services will be held at Aaron Ruben Nelson Mortuary at 2pm on Jul 2, 2014. In lieu of flowers, the family requests that contributions in her memory be made to Congregation B'nai Torah, Hasten Hebrew Academy, Hooverwood Guild.
