Carrie Garrow Obituary
Carrie L. Garrow, age 43, of Wisconsin Rapids, WI died Saturday, October 25, 2014 at her home.
Funeral Services are 11:00 AM Thursday, October 30, 2014 at Ritchay Funeral Home in Wisconsin Rapids, WI. Rev. John Grohs will officiate. Visitation will be held at Ritchay Funeral Home from 4:00-7:00 PM Wednesday and Thursday at the funeral home from 10:00-11:00 AM.
Carrie was born October 9, 1971 in Wisconsin Rapids, WI to Weston and Linda (Rubey) Garrow. Carrie worked as a home health care provider for many years. She was quick witted with a quirky sense of humor. Carrie always tried to find the good in people. If someone needed help or a place to stay, she was there for them. Her door was always opened.
Carrie was a proud mother of her two girls, Jessica and Emily. She never missed a chance to sing their praises to anyone that would listen. She also was overjoyed to be a grandmother. Her grandson, Logan, was the apple of her eye. She was "Gigi" to her grandson.
Carrie is survived by two daughters, Jessica Buelow and Emily Buelow; grandson, Logan; mother, Linda (Ray) Hamus; father, Weston (Betty) Garrow; sister, Anna Garrow Kauffman; brother, Christopher Garrow; uncle, James (Angela) Rubey; aunt, Phyllis (Dan) Schwartz; uncle, Ray (Shirley) Wolff and great grandmother, Mildred Rayome.
Carrie was preceded in death by her maternal grandparents, Loretta and Harvey Rubey, paternal grandparents, Ethel and Louis Wolff and aunt and godmother, Violet Wilke.
"Carrie is deeply loved and missed. Rest in Peace, Baby Girl."

Carrie we only knew each other a short time, it seemed like we were life long friends. Anytime I needed some one to talk to, even if things were busy on your end you made time for me.......I will never forget when you told me "You shouldn't be so hard on yourself Jess, we all have made mistakes and done things we are not proud of. You are one of the only honest FRIENDS I have. I don't have many TRUE FRIENDS," but yet you were surrounded by people all the time. I know now what you meant.....A FRIEND stands by your side no matter the circumstance. I will always cherish our friendship, until we meet again in my heart is were I will keep you friend. I miss you

To my Dearest Carrie. My heart hurts so deeply without you and you always put my needs above yours. You are the love of my life and it will be nearly impossible to go on without you. You were the love of my life my future, my wife. You had the most genuine heart that I have ever seen. I know you are in heaven with all the angels, and I know you will always be watching over me. We had a bond nobody could ever break and nobody will ever replace you. I love you with all my heart, and even though you are gone, you will never be forgotten. Love you Baby Girl Forever and always. Love Michael & Snickers.

Ever since I first met you when I was in Jr High with Chris, you were always so friendly, such a caring and loving person. I am so saddened over this. You always tried to keep a smile on your face and did what you could to keep a smile on everyone else's face. You did everything in your power to help people with anything you could. Your huge heart and sense of humor will be missed dearly. Fly amongst the angels. The world will definitely be a little darker now without you in it. Rest In Paradise Carrie! ??

Carrie, even though we were far apart by miles, you were always close to my heart. .In your FB posts I found another who looked at the world in a funny offbeat way..now you can look down on the whole world and laugh at the craziness. stir things up a bit up there-im sure its too quiet and you will create thunder and rainbows...

Wes,
I haven't seen you for years but my heart goes out to you! Never right to lose a child but we are sure God has a special place for her. You take care and if you need to talk just let me know.
