Charlotte Lundeen

April 12, 1937 — March 19, 2026

Scandia

Charlotte Lundeen, age 88, of Scandia, Minnesota, passed away peacefully after an unexpected short hospitalization on March 19, 2026.

Charlotte was born on April 12, 1937, in Marksville, Minnesota, to Clarence and Myrna Berg. She graduated from White Bear Lake High School and went on to build a life centered around family, community, and the place she loved most—Scandia.

Charlotte had a deep love for her community and was actively involved with Gammelgarden Museum and Elim Lutheran Church. She cherished time spent with friends, especially around a good game of bridge. Known for her warmth and hospitality, Charlotte was an exceptional cook. Her Swedish meatballs and fried chicken were family favorites, and she dedicated many years to preparing lutefisk dinners for the Scandia and Marine on St. Croix communities.

Above all, Charlotte treasured her family and the many friendships she cultivated throughout her life.

She was preceded in death by her parents; her daughter, Terri Holmen; and her brothers, Larry and Darrell.

Charlotte will be deeply missed by her loving husband, Ken; her children, Steve (Cathy), Lori (Mark) Steele, and Cindy (Todd) Kiekhafer; son-in-law, David Holmen; her grandchildren, Chris (Agie), Cory (Meghan), Derek (Krista), Brandon, Megan, Allaire (Tom), Brandon (Tatiana), Matt (Kelly), Molly, Tony (Sonya), and Danielle, Alician (Jose) Hernandez, Autumn Kiekhafer, Austin Kiekhafer; many great-grandchildren; her brother, Bob (Linda); and many other relatives and dear friends.

A Memorial Service will be held at 11 AM, on Tuesday, March 31, 2026, at Elim Lutheran Church, located at 20971 Olinda Trail North in Scandia. Family will be greeting friends one hour prior to the service at the church. Burial at Elim Lutheran Cemetery, Scandia.
