Charlsie was born December 2, 1925 in Clyde, Texas to Charles and Lydia Curd Jennings. She married James Lester Poe in 1945 and together they had five children. Mr. Poe passed away in 1968 and in 1969, Charlsie married Raymond Lassetter. They were married for twelve years before he passed away.

Charlsie loved all things outdoors. Her favorite place to be was fishing on Lake Mexia. When not fishing, she enjoyed gardening and any other yard work she could find to do (even gathering and counting pecans and acorns!). She had a passion for growing and canning her own vegetables. When family or friends came to visit, they almost always left with some of her home grown canned goodies. She retired from Owens-Illinois after 14 years of service. Then she moved to Lake Mexia, where she lived the next 40 years of her life. Many of those years she worked for Mexia State School.

Charlsie was preceded in death by two sons, Randy Allen Poe and James Michael Poe; a grandson, Richard Troy Poe; and all 11 brothers and sisters.

She is survived by her two daughters, Sharon Ann Reid of Gholson and Judy Dominguez and husband, John of China Spring; one son, Tony Poe and wife, Barbara of Hewitt; 10 grandchildren; 20 great-grandchildren; four great-great-grandchildren; and numerous nieces and nephews.

Pallbearers will be J. B. Dominguez, Colton Scallion, Caleb Scallion, Jim Alexander, Jason Alexander and Kevin Nelson.
