Charlene Rone Murray
Journeyman Hairstylist
1937-2021
Charlene Rone Murray, was a Journeyman Hair Stylist, who first started as a Non Roster Body Make Up Artist in 1966, passing her Body Make Up Roster examination in 1969. She later elevated to full Roster in January of 1970. She was one of our first Body Makeup Artists. In June of 1976, she requested a classification change to Hair Stylist, having submitted the appropriate days for transfer and the appropriate Licensing.
Charlene retired in 1989, and took an Honorable Withdrawal in that same year. She was an active member of the Red Hats Society and she enjoyed her later years with this great group of friends. The pride of her working career was the work she did on the movie ‘Goonies’ as a hairstylist, and of course ‘Grease’ and doing the hair for the "Pink Ladies" in Grease. She spoke very highly of Steven Spielberg and how kindly she was treated on set.
She’s fondly remembered for her years living in Granada Hills and then eventually her move down to the San Diego area to be closer to her son Tom and his wife Kirstin. She had a beautiful cat named TC who is now living with her son and his family.
The family has not planned any special services and are most likely going to do a service out in front of their home at Sunset Cliffs and just "paddle her ashes out in front of the house, so that every time we look at the sunset over the ocean we can watch and think about her".
"Rest in peace Charlene".
