Charisse Y. Thomas Bronston, resident of Kansas City, Missouri, passed away on May 10th, 2018, at the age of 58. Charisse accepted Christ at a very early age at Paseo Baptist Church.

Charisse was a Kansas City native, graduating from Southeast High School in 1978. She went on to attend Southwest Baptist College in Bolivar, Missouri. She held a limited number of long-term positions in her lifetime including Unit Secretary at St. Luke’s Hospital, Store Manager at Big City Furniture and lastly as the Branch Manager of World Finance in Oak Grove, Missouri.

As servants of the Lord, Charisse and Charles spent much of their time sharing their musical talent singing at nursing homes and various churches across the city.
