Charlotte Galena Hanson was born on January 13, 1928 in Los Angeles, California to Charles and Gilma (Lien) Wiggins. At the age of three, her family moved to Albert Lea, where she attended school. Following her schooling, she worked at the Wilson plant in the cafeteria as a cook for 35 years.
On August 8, 1945, Charlotte was united in marriage to Glen "Ding" Hanson in Albert Lea. To this union, two sons were born: David and Steven. Charlotte was a lifetime member of the Legion Auxiliary. She was a member at First Lutheran Church in Glenville. In her free time, she enjoyed crafts, watching the Minnesota Twins and Vikings, and traveling to visit her family. She was an excellent cook and baker; meringue pie being her specialty!
She is preceded in death by her husband, Glen "Ding" Hanson; both parents; and a sister, Jane (Warren) Johnson.
Those left to carry on her legacy include her children, David (Brenda) Hanson of Boise, ID, and Steven (Sandy) Hanson of Albert Lea; grandchildren, Jodi (Rob) Tell, Erik Hanson, Rachael (Scott Wargo) McDonald, Aubrey (Chris) Myers, Darren (Jenny) Hanson, and Joel Hanson; great-grandchildren, Sophie and Miriam Tell; Brooke, Callie and Caleb Hanson; a great-great-grandson, Lucas; sister-in-law, Maxine Hanson; her goddaughter, Pat Godkin; as well as many other loving relatives and friends.
Blessed be her memory!
