It is with profound sorrow yet with gratitude for his well-lived life,
we announce the passing of Charles Bartolomeo, on October 21, 2024. Born
on September 19, 1936, Charles was a compassionate, loving, and
inspiring individual whose legacy will forever be etched into the hearts
and minds of his loved ones.

Charles was a talented business owner who ignited the beauty industry in
Lake Havasu City, Arizona, where he was a revered pioneer from 1978
until his retirement. His passion for his work was infectious, and he
took immense pleasure in teaching his students, reveling in their
successes as if they were his own. Charles was a world champion
hairstylist, a testament to his progressive approach in his industry.
Beyond his professional accomplishments. His love for his family was
paramount, and the joy he found in family gatherings was palpable.

His Sicilian heritage, passed down from his immigrant parents, Frank and
Francis, was a source of great pride. Charles inherited their love for
people, and his generous spirit was evident in his numerous
contributions to the Lake Havasu City community. He spearheaded several
events, many being the first of their kind in the area. He loved hearing
people's stories, sharing meals, and providing unwavering support to his
friends and family in both good times and bad.

Charles cherished his family above all. He is survived by his beloved
wife, Lee Bartolomeo, and their three children. He was a proud
grandfather to 15 grandchildren. Charles is also survived by his dear
sisters as well as three nephews, two nieces in New York, and his
cherished goddaughter. His life was a testament to the power of love,
compassion, and dedication. His legacy will continue to inspire all who
knew him.

We would like to extend our heartfelt gratitude to Acacia Hospice and
the incredible team at Foundation Home Health. Your compassion,
dedication, and support during this time have made a profound
difference. Thank you for your unwavering care and for going above and
beyond to ensure comfort and dignity. We truly appreciate everything you
