Irma Harsin Obituary

Irma "Carol" Harsin, 99

Irma "Carol" Harsin, 99, passed away at Living Springs Assisted Living in Post Falls, Idaho on October 28, 2025. Carol was born December 23, 1925 in Two Buttes, Colorado to James Marshall and Lillian Caroline (Hawkins) Weidman.

Carol was raised in Central Point, Oregon. It was in Central Point that she graduated from high school. She married Dewey Virgil Rikard (who is now deceased) on May 11, 1945 in Central Point. She then married Paul L. Harsin in Medford, Oregon (who is now deceased).

She was a Title Officer for Panhandle Title Company and Hope Realty as well as a legal secretary for Herb Sanderson the Attorney in Coeur d'Alene, Idaho over the years 1972-1988.

Carol lived in Las Vegas, Nevada for several years and then moved to Hayden Lake, Idaho on a farm from 1974 until 1998. She moved to Leisure Park in Hayden, Idaho where she lived until 2021. Carol lived at North Star Retirement for three years and has been living at Living Springs Assisted Living in Post Falls the last six months.



She enjoyed gardening, RV travel, donating her time to the Women's Center in Coeur d'Alene, her Rimrock Ladies Social Club friends, antiquing and working with her daughter Caroline on estate sales and her once in a lifetime trip to China. What she loved most of all were her visits with her children, grandchildren, and great-grandchildren. She was so proud of all of her family.

Carol is survived by her son and his wife, Michael and Julia Rikard of Las Vegas, Nevada; her daughter and her husband, Caroline & Allan Friesen of Post Falls, Idaho; her daughter Peggy Ann Gale of Sandpoint, Idaho; her son and his wife, Brian and Sally Rikard of Coeur d'Alene, Idaho; eight grandchildren and eleven great-grandchildren.
