CHARLENE RUTH LYTLE
July 30, 1933 - October 18, 2024
It's with broken hearts that our family shares with you about the passing of our sweet Charlene Ruth Lytle. She was born on July 30, 1933 to Charles and Elma Tarter in Airlie, Oregon. She was 91 years old and lived a wonderful and full life.
Charlene had two sisters, Arlene and Mary Lou and 3 brothers, Robert, Ray and Henry. Charlene went to school in Monmouth where she met and fell in love with her future husband, Melvin Lytle. They went to the then brand new, Central High School & was the first graduating class.
Melvin and Charlene were married in Airlie at the home of her parents. After completing his service in the Army, Mel and Charlene returned from California where he was stationed and settled in Pedee, Oregon. They then moved to Dallas, Oregon where they lived and raised their four kids.
Charlene was called Tina by most of her family and friends. Her older brother started calling her Tina because she was so tiny when she was young.
Charlene worked at the Agripac Cannery for most of her working years as a floor leader where her coworkers praised her for being a great boss.
She lived her life to the fullest, making good friends and having fun wherever she ventured in life. Charlene loved to bake and cook. She made the best cookies and all of the neighboring kids came running to her house hoping they could have some! She volunteered in her kids' classrooms at school and oftentimes supplied them with those cookies and other goodies. She and her sister, Mary Lou joined the Red Hats Society where they participated in many activities.
Charlene was a very happy and loving woman with a great sense of humor. Her home was very warm and welcoming. She loved having her neighbors and friends drop in to visit and have coffee. Charlene loved to travel to the coast and the casino. She loved the holidays and always decorated and made all kinds of goodies. She had wonderful holiday meals and her family loved to go to her house for all holidays. She loved her grandchildren very much and was so proud of them all.
She is survived by daughter, Beverly (Don) Teal, and sons, Bryan, Jeff, and Darren Lytle (Tienne), brother, Henry Tarter, 8 grandchildren, 11 great grandchildren, and 2 great-great grandchildren. She is preceded in death by her husband, Melvin Lytle, and her granddaughter, Tara Kadell.
