Obituary
Charlene Pierre Fawehinmi was born to Pelissia Pierre (who proceeded her in death) and Edmond Dorval. Her aunt Erzulia Telfort raised Charlene and her brother Junior Pierre until she was no longer able due to her health. Charlene and Junior were separated as young children.
Charlene was placed in foster care at 7 years old. She received her education through Dade County Public Schools where she graduated from Miami Northwestern Senior Highschool, “Class of 2001”. She was proud to be a “Bull”. She was also a Dietetic Aide certified by Lindsey Hopkins Technical Education Center. Through her journey she met three Godmothers. Mrs. Pierre, a foster mom who accepted Charlene as her own. Mrs. Tillman, a guidance counselor, took interest in Charlene as a child and throughout her adult life. Ms. Rawls, a teacher, encouraged her to find her father and brother.
Charlene was a devoted wife, a loving mother, a caring daughter, a compassionate Godmother, a special sister, and an irreplaceable friend. She was not one for the spotlight yet her constant quiet strength had a positive impact on all who knew her. She was always supportive of family and friends. She consistently carved out time to be present for significant events such as graduations, baby showers, weddings, birthday parties, holiday gatherings, and the nightly prayer line.
Charlene and Oluwarotimi Fawehinmi were married for 16 wonderful years. She was a force of encouragement offering invaluable advice in time of both triumph and challenge. This partnership provided them with a great number of diverse cultural travel and social experiences. They traveled to Nigeria, Dubai, England, The Bahamas, Jamaica, and locally within the United States. The children enjoyed trips to theme parks in Orlando. Charlene faithfully worshipped at Trinity Church.
Although she grew up as a foster child, Charlene loved the strong bond of family and friends that surrounded her throughout her life. She was drawn to togetherness and committed to helping others. She was employed with DCF as a Call Center Agent serving the community for 11 years until her untimely death.
