Ms Charlotte V. Thompson

Charlotte Venice Thompson was born on October 6, 1969, to the loving union of Elder Joseph Thompson and Mother Velma Jean Thompson. From the very beginning, Charlotte carried a quiet strength, a gentle spirit, and a heart rooted in love for God, family, and community. She received her formal education through the Milwaukee Public School System and graduated from Custer High School. Charlotte dedicated much of her professional life to serving others. She worked for 18 years in the insurance industry at American General Life Insurance Company (AIG) and 10 years in education through Milwaukee Public Schools. As a Children's Health Assistant at Starms Early Childhood Center, she poured compassion into her work, lovingly supporting children with special needs and ensuring they were cared for with dignity and patience. A woman of faith, Charlotte was deeply grounded in the church as a young child. She attended Pentecostal Power Church under the leadership of the late Elder Thompson and current presiding Bishop Dr. Ellis Murchison, Sr., and she was a proud and faithful member of Grace Temple Church of Holiness under the leadership of her brother, State Bishop Lael Thompson Sf. Her faith guided her life and sustained her through every season. In her quieter moments, Charlotte found joy in watching movies, listening to music, and spending cherished time with family and friends. She especially loved traveling to New Orleans and Houston, her "homes away from home", where laughter, love, and family memories were always waiting. She later discovered a true passion for line dancing and found community and joy as a member of the MSBU Dance Community. Above all else, Charlotte's greatest joy was her family. She adored and loved her three daughters: Renesha, Charmaine, and Deneshia with her whole heart. Becoming a grandmother was one of her proudest blessings. Affectionately known as "Gigi" to her beloved grandchildren, Romere and Xumi "Pebbles," she embraced that role with endless love, pride, and tenderness. Charlotte will be remembered for her kind and loving heart, her beautiful smile, and her contagious laugh that could light up any room she entered. She had a way of making people feel seen, welcomed, and loved; and that is how she will forever live on in the hearts of those who knew her, Charlotte departed this life on Thursday, February 5, 2026. She was preceded in death by her father, Pastor Joseph Thompson; her brothers: Stevie Thompson, Renard Thompson, Antonio Rowsey, and Marvin Rowsey; her sister, LaShunda Thompson; and long-term loving companion, Dennis Stewart. She leaves behind to cherish her memory; her devoted mother, Velma Jean Thompson; her three daughters, Renesha Harris (mother of Romere Harris), Charmaine Harris (mother ofXumi Rae Boone), and Denesha Stewart; her sisters, Healean Harley and Twonda Thompson of Houston, Texas; her brothers: Samuel Thompson and Lael (Robin) Thompson of Milwaukee, WI; and a host of nieces, nephews, extended family, and dear friends. Though she is no longer with us in body, Charlotte Venice Thompson's love, faith, laughter, and legacy will live on forever. She will be deeply missed and always remembered. A special thanks of gratitude is extended to Crystal (Lasae) Simpson, Denika (Aaron) Rucker and the entire Stewart family.
