FULTON – It is with heavy hearts that we announce the passing of Chara L. Huller-Lenhard, affectionately known as “Chacha” to her friends.

Family was the cornerstone of Chara’s life. She is survived by her loving children, Kim Rice, Corey Huller, Tami Huller and Deidra Wilson, as well as siblings, Debbie, Sandy, Linda, Dennis, and Norman.
