Charlotte Elizabeth Hoehn, known to many as “Mimi,” died on March 30, 2019. She was 96 and her family was with her the night before she died.

Mrs. Hoehn was born September 9, 1922 in Germany, where she met her husband, Paul Hoehn. They came to the United States in 1954, and settled in Southampton, where they raised their children, Petra and Mark. She used her skills as a seamstress, learned in Germany working for multiple retail establishments, in Southampton, doing work for local stores including Shep Miller, Caldwell Alexander and the Voyager. Survivors said she loved living in Southampton, where she enjoyed going to the beach, walking around Agawam Lake, strolling through Morton Wildlife Refuge, and people-watching from her Jobs Lane apartment window located over the Boot Tree. Most of all she enjoyed spending time with family. She spent her last four years residing in Berkeley Heights, New Jersey.

Mrs. Hoehn was predeceased by her husband, Paul; her brother, Manfred; and her sister, Inge. She is survived by her sister, Ursula Dressler of Germany; her daughter, Petra Elliston and husband David of Southampton; her son, Mark Hoehn and wife Sandy of Berkeley Heights; her grandchildren, Keith, Kelly, Kaitlyn and Paul; as well as her nieces and nephews in Germany. She leaves behind a pet, Sebastian, that she called Poopsie.

Fractures Showing on Southampton Village Board Over Issues Like Meeting Agendas, Records Release, Workforce Housing and More

There was a period of time, not too long ago, when the Southampton Village Board could be counted on to pass almost any resolution or legislation with a 5-0 vote. It happened so frequently, in fact, that many residents began to question if that kind of uniformity of thought was healthy for the village, or if it was a sign that the art of dissent had been lost, along with a willingness to thoughtfully examine both sides of any given issue. One thing’s been made clear in the second half of the calendar year — that period of smooth sailing ... 12 Dec 2025 by Cailin Riley

Dear Neighbor

Congratulations on your new windows. They certainly are big. They certainly are see-through. You must be thrilled with the way they removed even more of that wall and replaced it with glass. It must make it easier to see what is going on in your house even when the internet is down. And security is everything. Which explains the windows. Nothing will make you feel more secure than imagining yourself looking over the rear-yard setback from these massive sheets of structural glass. Staring at the wall has well-known deleterious impact, and windows the size of movie screens are the bold ... 11 Dec 2025 by Marilee Foster
