Charlene was a classy lady. She always took the high road. She was very respectful, caring and a most wonderful person. Charlene was the principal at Scavo High School and the best boss I have ever had. I will always miss her quiet smile and dignified manner. She made my life and job enjoyable. My prayers go out to her family, whom she so loved. Thank you, Charlene for being a part of my life. You made a positive difference to many.
