Carole Petersen Obituary


Carole Sue Petersen

Carol was the last surviving child of Howard and Effie Montgomery, she was welcomed in Heaven by all her loved ones who preceded her in passing. She takes many long-lasting friendships with her.
A woman of God who instilled the joy of the Lord in all who knew and loved her. She loved unconditionally, always available to lend her ear and give a comforting word. Her humor will be forever missed!
She was the best she could be for her children, Pam Holte (Ralph), Richard Parfitt (Teri), Kristi Mabus (Bob), Robert Brown (Rhonda), Jodi Nance, Raymond Brown (Meg), and Judy Brown; she loved her grandchildren and nieces and nephews with all her heart.
Our family is forever changed and she is greatly missed.

To Carole's family - I was very sad and surprised to see your mom's picture in Sunday's paper with the sad news. The photo definitely captured her spirit. Even though I had lost touch with her when she moved a few years ago, I still considered her a good friend and kept meaning to visit her. Love to you all.
