I will long remember Miss Bader's brilliant smile. I was her student at Hale Kula in the early 60s. I remember the contagious joy shared with fellow classmates as she taught us chords and songs on the ukulele. My heart is heavy that my latest search for her has led me to this site. May The Light that guided each of us to her shine on
I want to say how deeply sorry I am for the passing of Charmaine. I know that she is now in heaven and celebrating life. Charmaine has been a wonderful, loving, and caring person when my mom was living. My mother lived on the same street as Charmaine and my mother always spoke so highly of Charmaine. They were high school classmates. I know now that my Mom will now have her dear friend with her in heaven rejoicing.

Wow. I am deeply saddened. I’m not sure why she popped into my mind recently. I was a student of hers at Hale Kula elementary school in 1970. And then we moved to the same street that she lived on at the time in Mililani. I remember her as a stern but absolutely wonderful very conscientious educator. I still remember some of the Hawaiian songs she taught us. Years after elementary school she left a note of apology to me for an minor incident that happened in elementary school of which I couldn’t recall. However it bothered her even after all those years and she thought it had affected me. I rode my bike to her house to thank her and let her know that I was fine and didn’t even remember it. But it just made me respect and admire her even more. like I said not sure why she even popped into my consciousness.... very odd. Having said that I am sorry to hear of her passing and wish to extend our aloha to her ohana and friends back in the islands.

✝️️Dear Ohana of Charmaine ,
We are soooo very saddened to hear about Charmaine. 💖🌈💓🌟💞🌟We Luv Luv Luv her so very much!!!
My mom, Carole Lee, was one of her best friends! They taught together at Hale Kula Elementary ... they went galavanting together, would help her with her rental & just hang out, they enjoyed eachother’s company!
This is Wendy Lee-York, daughter of Carole & neighbors from the other side of Wehewehe loop. She always had her arms open to share with our Ohana & even had us over for dinner! If it weren’t for her & my other Aunty, I would not have the house we live in today. They vouched for me with the landlord & because he just felt the sincerity & Aloha from them, he let me have the house! She even gave me a toolbox & tools & helped me with shelves in my house.😊 She let me borrow a saw that I believe was her dad’s ... (please let me know if you’d like to have it.)
I met a couple of her brothers...

Ms. Bader shared a room at Queen's Medical Center with my wife, Kirsten Brant Casey last year. She was a wonderful person and was a great comfort to both of us during a very difficult time. My deepest condolences to her family for your loss.
