Christine Hae-Won Tanahashi's Obituary
Christine Hae-Won Tanahashi was born in Seoul, Korea on December 12, 1968, and passed away August 16, 2022 in Honolulu, Hawai'i at the age of 53.
Christine will be remembered for her absolute devotion to her children and late husband as she prevailed through life's most difficult trials. She always had a keen eye for taking memorable photos and creating beautiful flower arrangements for her church.
During her life in Honolulu, Hawai’i, Christine had achieved many accomplishments, the greatest being alongside her late husband, Dan-Hideki Tanahashi M.D. Together, they held an elderly psychiatric practice for over 10 years to support Hawai’i's elderly community. They changed the lives of thousands, giving elderly the opportunity to live life to its fullest. Christine and Hideki’s souls now rest together where they can continue to love and watch over those who’ve survived them.
Her husband, Dan-Hideki Tanahashi M.D. preceded her passing in April 2015. She is survived by her two children; James Tanahashi (son,) Taylor Tanahashi (daughter,) pets; Ai-chan and Natsu, her siblings; Charles Choi (brother,) Caroline Choi (sister,) and additional family members.
