Charlene A. Knezevich

March 7, 1933 - December 15, 2018

Charlene A. Knezevich, 85 years of Monroe, passed away peacefully at home on December 15, 2018. Born to Thelma Lewis and Ernest Wilburn in Nashville, Tennessee on March 7, 1933. Charlene married the love of her life, Pio Knezevich, in 1976. She is survived by her husband; one daughter, Cheryl Barbier; one son, Keith (Renee) Bergmooser; and a stepson, Paul (Sharon) Knezevich. She is also survived by eleven grandchildren, eleven great-grandchildren and one great-great-grandson. Charlene was preceded in death by her parents, one son, Robert Bergmooser (Bobby) and one great grandson, Jakup MacMullen. The most important thing to Charlene was her family. When raising her children she created a home where all the kids wanted to hang out. There was always enough food to feed a few extra people in Charlene’s kitchen. Once she fed you, it was pretty certain that she would make you jitterbug or cha-cha with her, too! She was a constant presence at her children and grandchildren’s sporting events and loved them fiercely. In keeping with Charlene’s wishes, cremation has taken place. A memorial luncheon will be held at a later date. Memorial contributions in Charlene’s memory are suggested to the organization of the donor’s choice.
