**Services have been postponed

Charlotte May Koerber passed away in the arms of her parents on Monday, November 11, 2019 at the age of 7 months. She was born on March 18, 2019 to Kyle and Cassady Koerber of Westminster. She entered the world fighting and never stopped.

Charlotte loved physical therapy and could sit up, squat and even helped turn pages in her favorite books. She was the only baby in the hospital who was trusted to sit up in a tumble form chair while she was still intubated - and she loved to sit in it for hours at a time!

Charlotte was born with fetal hydrops, a rare disorder that affected her lymphatic system, but she faced her medical challenges with resilience and courage, even ""proving them wrong"" multiple times. Although she is a medical anomaly, her body wasn't able to keep up with the enormous amount of heart and soul she had.

Though she faced many challenges, Charlotte was full of sass and a real social butterfly. She loved listening to ocean waves, snuggling her bunny, holding hands with everyone that visited, and especially chatting with the girls. Her mom and dad talked to her about the weather, read to her daily, and would sing the occasional song to her. With her strength, sweetness, and crazy little eyebrows she won the hearts of all of her nurses, doctors, therapists and surgeons.

In addition to her parents, Kyle and Cassady, she is survived by her great grandparents Walter Koerber, Joyce Floyd Ates, and Lydia Faircloth, grandparents Kal and Marianne Koerber, Barry and Judy Faircloth, aunt and uncle Brandyn and Karla Koerber, cousins Silas and Nora Koerber, and a host of family and friends who cared for her deeply.
She was greeted in heaven by Walter Faircloth, James R. Floyd Jr., Huey Messick, Julie DeLynn Messick, Patricia Koerber, Maxine and Bernard Barbeau, Sister Mary Audrey Pawlak and Aunt Joan Mackal.

Charlotte's life will be celebrated on Thursday, March 19, 2020 at 3:30pm at Horan & McConaty, 7577 W. 80th Ave. Arvada, CO 80003.

In lieu of flowers, the family welcomes memorial contributions to the Lymphangiomatosis & Gorham's Disease Alliance and the National Organization for Rare Disorders.

The family greatly appreciates donations made to these charities dedicated in Charlotte May Koerber's name.
