Charlotte died
without a will.
The beach house,
while paid off, was in her name.
Dorothy didn’t have
a job, and Dorothy didn’t have a home.
Charlotte’s heirs
were her seven older siblings. Giving
the property on the beach to the camp, as a memorial, was an obvious choice. But it is not what they did.
They sold the house
to Dot for a dollar and let her sell it to the Camp at fair market value and
set herself up in Newberg. Everyone was certain that it is what Charlotte would
have wanted.
