Remembering Charlotte

On December 14, 2012, Charlotte Bacon lost her life during the tragic events at Sandy Hook Elementary School.
Just six years old, she loved Tae Kwon Do, the color pink and any animal she ever came into contact with. She was a constant source of joy and love in the lives of her friends and family, and will forever be remembered for her smile and enthusiasm for life.
