It is indeed with a heavy heart to even try to put into words how to express this sudden departure of Sistah Charlotte! I’ve know her and her Ohana since my Air Force days as Braddah Stan and I served in the same Squadron! I always thought that had Sistah been in the service she’d make rank really fast since she’s motivated and determined to make things happen yet kind hearted, compassionate, and empathetic! She was always willing to listen if you needed to vent and then offer possible suggestions instead of forcing it. 
She’d give updates on the week’s menu of what Braddah would be making and whether I get something or not it was always with a cheerful “Okay, Mahalo have a good day and God Bless!” Mahalo Ke Akua for sharing Sistah with us. I know You wanted her to now be with You. We will miss her dearly but be joyful that she is in Your Kingdom. Sincere Condolences as well as God’s comfort to Braddah Stan, Charlise, and all of Da Ohana!
Aloha A Hui Hou!

Charlotte, thank you for being such a blessing in my life.  You were a childhood friend whom I considered like a sister.  I’m so grateful for the relationship we had over the years.  I will miss you dearly, but I’m also glad that you are now  in a better place where there’s no more suffering.  Until we meet again!  Love you, sis!

Charlotte was the kind of person who could light up a room the moment she walked in. I met Char through bowling, and from the very beginning, I instantly liked her. She was not only a wonderful bowler but also an amazing cook. She was always willing to share tips to help me improve my bowling game, and she did it with kindness, patience, and her special sense of humor.
One of my favorite memories was how she would tease my husband and me whenever she made us one of her delicious salads. We could never seem to share it without "fighting" over who got the bigger portion. The same thing happened whenever we ordered éclairs. Char would laugh at us because she knew neither of us wanted to give up a bite.
Her friendship brought so much joy, laughter, and warmth to those around her. The bowling lanes won't be the same without her advice, encouragement, and contagious spirit. Charlotte was truly one of a kind, and she will be deeply missed by everyone who had the privilege of knowing her.
Rest in Heavenly Peace, Char. Your light, laughter, and love will never be forgotten. ❤️

Charlotte was always a bright light and beautiful soul.  She was supportive, funny, caring and just a great friend to everyone she knew.  I will always be grateful for the invites to party’s and the support she gave me over the years.  Her mark has been left on many of us who knew and loved her.

One of the many times I had the opportunity to sit and enjoy the company of Char and Stan. Char’s amazing energy and beautiful spirit always made you feel welcomed, loved, and at home. Her laughter, warmth, and genuine heart will forever hold a special place in my heart. She will truly be missed, but the love and joy she shared with all of us will live on forever. ❤️🙏🏽

In Loving Memory of Charlotte

My heart is heavy with sadness for you and your family during this incredibly difficult time. Please know that you are surrounded by love, prayers, and people who care deeply about you.

May the beautiful memories of Char bring you comfort during this difficult time. I pray that God gives you strength when you feel you have none, peace when your heart is hurting, and comfort in knowing that Char’s  love and memory will forever live on in the hearts of everyone who knew her.

I am here for you, to listen, to pray, or simply to sit with you whenever you need someone.

May God wrap His loving arms around your entire family. ❤️🙏🏽
