The Bakersfield Californian 
Hinman, Charlotte Beatrice     
1918 - 2005 
 
Charlotte Beatrice Hinman 
Services: Thurs., July 28, 9:30 a.m. 

Charlotte Beatrice Hinman was born on January 28, 1918, in Bakersfield, 
California, and passed away on July 24, 2005. Graveside service will be held 
on Thursday, July 28, at 9:30 a.m., at Greenlawn Cemetery, 3700 River Blvd., 
Bakersfield, California. Reverend Milt Cole will officiate. She is preceded in 
death by her mother, Elsa (Dhall) Hinman and father, Jay A. Hinman. Charlotte 
is remembered as a proper lady kind, caring and sociable with beautiful eyes, 
a gorgeous smile and radiant skin. Taking pride in her appearance, she took 
great care of her skin, enjoyed having her hair done and kept fit with her 
love for swimming. She had a soft spot for animals, cherishing her pet poodles 
and caring for stray cats. She also loved to paint, filling many canvases with 
landscapes, flowers and birds. You might have mistaken her for a movie star in 
her 1953 yellow Cadillac Eldorado convertible. A longtime childcare provider 
for Tom and Dolores McNeil, their daughter Kathleen recalls: Elegant and 
refined is my first impression of Charlotte. Even as a child, I could sense 
this about her. But, she was also great fun. Each summer, along with my 
brother Charles, we rarely missed a day swimming at the Bakersfield College 
pool. Creative, she would sketch cartoon characters, and make paper dolls for 
me. I fondly remember her taking me to school in her big yellow Cadillac with 
a box full of kittens for show and tell. She loved the beach and joined us on 
vacation in Santa Barbara. Patient to a fault, I cannot recall one instance 
when she raised her voice or her hand to us, though I confess we deserved it 
on one than more occasion. Charlotte was very dear to our family and holds a 
very special place in our hearts. She will be deeply missed. Special 
acknowledgement and thanks to Gloria Santiago, her caretaker of 11 years and 
Glorias daughter, Monica Bovavilla. No visitation is scheduled.
