The sun rose on the life of Ms. Charli DeAnn Hendricks on August 10, 1977 when she was born to proud parents, Charlie W. Hendricks and Gloria J. Hendricks Spiller. She was the second child born to this union. Names for her father (the dr. said she was going to be a boy), Charli came into the world with a fighting spirit. The doctors said she would not live past the first two days and then every year, she was not going to make it. "As a family, we celebrated every year as her last." God and Charli proved them wrong. She went on to live for 36 years and touch the hearts of various people in alot of ways.

She continued her education, earning her certification and license in Cosmetology. A woman of faith, she attended Now Faith Christian Center where she dedicated her life to Christ.
