Charlotte Bischoff, 89, died Jan. 22.
Born in Louisville, Ky., she grew up in Camp Taylor and attended Holy Family School. She earned her beautician’s license in 1947, after working for Consolidated Vultee on the military aircraft for World War II.
She enjoyed quilting and crocheting, but, most of all, loved being with her family, especially her grandchildren and great-grandchildren.
She was a devoted Catholic and said the rosary daily. She was married for more than 49 years to her loving husband, Herbert P. Bischoff. Mrs. Bischoff resided in Hodgenville, Ky., after her husband’s death in 1997. She recently moved to Tampa to live with her daughter.
She is survived by her children, Linda Alvarez (Rene), Phil Bischoff (Donna) and Charles Bischoff (Darlene); grandchildren, Phillip Bischoff (Mandy), Andrew Alvarez, Julie Bischoff Moore (Larry), Lauren Alvarez, Billy Bischoff (Angie) and Kimberly Bischoff; and five great-grandchildren.
She was preceded in death by her parents, Irene and Charles Kitzerow; brothers, Clemens and Edward; and sister, Elizabeth “Betty” Ann.
A funeral Mass celebrating Mrs. Bischoff’s life was held Feb. 3, at St. Gabriel the Archangel Catholic Church, Louisville. Interment followed at Resthaven Memorial Park.
Donations may be made in her honor to Home of the Innocents, Louisville, Ky.
