At the time of her death, she was on the advisory board of the Folk Art Market and also served on the boards of the Lensic Performing Arts Center and the Institute of American Indian Arts Foundation.

Her name was mentioned in the La Sierra College newspaper (Criterion) over 40 times over a two-year period. It appears Charmay was a socialite and somewhat flirtatious while in college. She was quoted as saying, “I love men! No, really, I think they are lots of fun, very capable, and very intelligent to talk too.” The school newspaper also reported, .... one Saturday night at the appointed hour, a cluster of smartly dressed girls were scrutinizing another's autographed programs from the Brian Sullivan Concert when a single feminine voice announced proudly, "Mine is the only one that has a special curly "Q" on the "B". Then Charmay tossed in her remark: "That's nothing; he gave me his address and the invitation to write!"
While in college, she had the hopes of becoming a dental hygienist.
