Charlotte M. Hanten
June 10, 1922 — October 7, 2012
Charlotte M. Hanten, 90, was reunited with her beloved husband Ed on October 7, 2012.
Born and raised in Crofton, Nebraska, Akron had been her home for the last 54 years.
An accomplished artist and art professor, Charlotte received her BA from William Penn University and her Master's degree in Art Education from Earlham College. After she and Ed moved to Akron, she taught art at Rankin Elementary School, Kent State University, and The University of Akron from which she retired in 1983.
Charlotte's painting talent included oils, acrylic, and watercolors. She was also accomplished in pencil and charcoal drawing, and oil pastels. With an eye for nature, beauty, and composition, her art was skillful, highly developed, and inspired both her students and the professional art community.
Preceded in death by her husband of 66 years, Charlotte will be deeply missed by her siblings Esther, Reba, Joyce, and Mike as well as nieces, nephews, dear friends, and a multitude of appreciative students.
A Memorial Service will be held 10:30 a.m. Saturday, October 20 at the Bath United Church of Christ, with Rev. Maureen Webber officiating. A reception will follow the service. Memorial donations may be made to the Humane Society of Greater Akron, 7996 Darrow Rd., Twinsburg 44087 or Bath United Church of Christ, 3980 W. Bath Rd., Akron 44333.
