Char Win
of Des Moines, Iowa

Char Win, age 17, passed away on Tuesday, February 6, 2024, at University of Iowa Hospital in Iowa City. He was born the son of San Thin Gonzelez on September 6, 2006, in Thailand at Mae La Refugee Camp. Char was 2 ½ years old when they moved to Des Moines, Iowa.

Char enjoyed watching Anime, playing video games, going to the gym, and playing basketball. He took great pride in his appearance, he always looked nice and had great hygiene. He was known to talk others into changing their own outfits so they were equally as dressed up as him when they went out together. Char was known by all as a sneaker head and he made sure to work hard so he could buy more shoes. Char was full of life and had a joke for everything! He would do anything to make his mom happy and enjoyed helping his mom with fundraisers in the community. He had the biggest heart, always made sure his loved ones knew how much they meant to him and how lucky he was to be in their lives.

Those left to cherish his memory include his loving mother San Thin Gonzelez, one sister, three brothers, grandma Mo Chuie, favorite cousin Poe Si, and girlfriend Queenie.

Visitation will be held at 10:00 a.m., Saturday, February 17, 2024, with funeral service following at 1:00 p.m., at Hamilton’s Funeral Home, 605 Lyon Street, Des Moines.

Memorial contributions may be directed to the family in memory of Char.
