Charlotte "Char" L Wallin

Charlotte “Char” Wallin

Charlotte Leigh Wallin was born September 1, 1976, in Central City, Nebraska, to Sharon Fay (Green) and Richard Lloyd Butt. Char grew up in Imperial and graduated from Chase County High School with the class of 1995. Char continued her education at Mid-Plains Community College and received an Associates Degree in Nursing.

On July 17, 1999, Char married Steven Dirk Wallin and to this union 3 children were born: Matalie, Mason, and Kadence. Char and Steve first settled 8 miles northwest of Imperial and then a year later moved to their current home on the southwest edge of Imperial.

Char began her nursing career at Chase County Hospital in Imperial where she worked as an LPN until 2006 when she was able to follow her real passion as a full-time mom. Char also worked alongside Steve to build their farming operation.

She was a member of the Imperial Berean Church, Teammates Mentoring Program and board, 2019 Cattlemen’s’ Ball Committee, and a Cheerleader of everything her children were involved with.

Char was a delightful, smiling girl from the time she was born. As she grew, Char was never without friends around. Everyone loved being around Char because she brought light to the room when she walked in. Char always made everyone around her feel welcome and included. Char was always for the underdog and would inspire those around her to think of others first and see the good in everyone.

As a young girl, Char loved her gymnastics and synchronized swimming classes. Char loved to dance and in high school was involved in drill team, cheerleading, and softball. As an adult, she was always ready to volunteer a helping hand and was involved in a plethora of activities.

Char always loved children and wanted to be a mom. Her husband and children were her life, and she put them before herself. Char was an amazing mother and wife who worked meticulously to organize their family home. Char rarely sat down because she was always doing something for her family and others. She loved being an aunt and attending events for her extended family.

Char enjoyed exercising, taking care of her flowers, reading, decorating for holidays, and attending her children’s many events. She especially loved spending time with her family. Char had a talent and an eye for fashion and flipping houses. Her generous spirit for her family and community brought beauty to everyone and everything she touched. Char loved to entertain, and her parties were always full of good food, laughter, and fun. Char loved Jesus and was unafraid to talk about her faith, because she was secure in who she was in Christ. She was beautiful outwardly and inwardly.

Char always had the sense of the right thing to do in situations and would forge ahead with strength and courage. Even through difficult times, she remained positive and full of hope, and inspired her family and others to do the same. Char inspired all she met and was close to, to walk with compassion towards others, love unconditionally, and live life full of joy. Char instilled these qualities into her three children who will continue her legacy.
