"Charmian Carr played the oldest von Trapp child, and in some ways she maintained that role in real life - guiding, cheering, supporting and generally being there for the rest of her 'sisters' and 'brothers.' " Carr is survived by her four siblings, her two children and four grandchildren. She is also survived by the six other actors how became part of cinematic history when there were cast as the von Trapp children. "We're second family," said Kym Karath, who played the youngest von Trapp, the role of Gretl, in an Associated Press 2015 interview to commemorate the film's 50th Anniversary. "As adults, we were deeply bonded, so our lives have really interwoven with each other."

Charmian Carr was born Charmian Farnon on December 28, 1942. She got her name because, supposedly, her father liked the name after reading William Shakespeare's "Antony and Cleopatra". Charmian was the name of one of Cleopatra's maids. She was the second of three daughters. Her mother, Rita Oehmen, had been a vaudeville actress with her brother Eddy, and her father, Brian Farnon, was a musician. She remembers her childhood as very nice, because her older sister Shannon Farnon was always there to watch out for her and their younger sister, Darleen Carr. She moved from Chicago to California when she was 13 and her father left her mother a few years after that. The girls hardly saw their father after that. She wanted to travel and to visit Europe, little knowing that a movie she would make would be partially shot in Europe.
