Charlene Somers

Charlene H. Somers 57, passed peacefully in her sleep on February 27, 2025. After a long battle with multiple illnesses, she is finally able to rest. 

 Charlene was born on February 8, 1968, in Bountiful, Utah to Earl and Marianna Harris. She was the youngest of four children. From her childhood, Charlene had a heart as big as her smile and brought warmth and joy to everyone who knew her. As a young adult Charlene showed amazing talent in competitive swimming. After high school she spent time in Connecticut as a caregiver where she touched many lives.

In 1989, Charlene married Corey Somers. They had two wonderful daughters, Angela and Jessica. While the marriage didn’t last, the love between her and her daughters never faltered. As she grew older, she made friends around the world via her love of video games. She was always there to support her friends and family with her sharp sense of humor. From her love of the holidays and Hello Kitty or the way she was the “Cool Mom” in the neighborhood, she made every moment special. She had a special place in her heart for her “Pumpkin,” her only granddaughter, Kira, who affectionately called Charlene “Grandma Kitty,” and shared many memories with her. 

 She will be deeply missed by Angela (AJ), Jessica (Casey), her granddaughter Kira, her two brothers Jeff and Charles, as well as many other family members and friends. She is preceded in death by her parents, Earl and Marianna; and sister, Dana Ann.

As Charlene often sang to us, “You are my Sunshine, my only sunshine.” She has made all of our lives brighter just for knowing her.

A memorial service will be held at Lindquist’s Bountiful Mortuary, 727 N. 400 E. Bountiful, Utah on Friday March 14, 2025 at 11 AM to 1 PM.
