"ROXANNE CHARLIE"
12X12X1.5 INCHES | 1/4" MODERN BIRCH FRAME
Roxanne Charlie was a mother of two girls, age two and four, and on her way to becoming a youth leader at home on the Splatsin Indian Band in the Okanagan. The 26-year-old was shot and killed at a party on Halloween 2009. She was visiting the lower mainland of Vancouver and had gone out to nightclubs with friends on the night of October 30 and ended up at an after-hours club when she and a man were shot. The man survived, and did not know Charlie. The chief of Splatsin said Charlie was trying to get her life on track while battling addiction. At last word, her daughters were with her parents.
