November 19, 1921 — February 10, 2011
Charlotte M. Eshleman, 89, formerly of Manheim, died peacefully surrounded by her loving family on Thursday, February 10, 2011 in Elizabethtown.
Born in Colmar, France, she was the daughter of the late Joseph and Mary Mann Yecker. Charlotte worked for twenty-five years for J. L. Clark, Lancaster. She was the wife of the late J. Leonard Eshleman who died in 1979. Charlotte was a member of Jehovahs Witnesses Kingdom Hall, Fruitville Pike, Lititz. She was also a life member of the Manheim Historical Society and a former member of the Manheim VFW Post 5956 Auxiliary. An avid reader, she enjoyed bird watching while spending time in her flower and vegetable gardens. Her greatest passion was raising her family. She showed great strength in the face of tragedy and her capacity to love despite indifference and anger never waivered. She held faith that things would always work out for the greatest good.
