Carol was born October 3, 1957 in Wichita Falls, Texas to the late Chrystal Mae and Harvey (H.J.) Fowler.  She was also welcomed into this world by her older brother, Bill Fowler.

Carol was married to Randy Olson on October 30, 1976.  She graduated from Electra High School in 1976.  She served as Executive Secretary to the president of the State National Bank in Electra.  In November 1987, she along with Randy and her brother-in-law, Ricky Olson formed Olson Auto Clinic, Inc.  They worked side by side until they retired in September 2015.

Carol loved her family, friends, clients of their business and their many pets throughout the years.  Carol was always so very kind, polite and very pleasant to be around.  She was a devoted Christian and loved the Lord, she was a member of First Baptist Church of Electra.   She had a wonderful sense of humor and over the past couple of years, a big fan of You Tube as the internet became a routine with which she and Randy shared a lot of laughs and enjoyment together.  She spent countless hours on renovating their home, painting artwork, all kinds of crafts, beading into jewelry and crocheting.

Growing up, Carol enjoyed Rock & Roll Music, riding her horses, Buttons and Smokey.  She loved days at the lake and weekends at the drag races watching Randy and Ricky race.

Carol took great pride in her appearance, her hair and jewelry as she was truly a beautiful woman both inside and out.  She loved turquoise, animal prints and bling-bling.

She leaves behind her husband, Randy Olson of the home, brother, Bill Fowler of Lillian, Texas, brother-in-law, Ricky Olson of Electra.   She had two cousins she loved very much and were a big part of her life who are going to miss her terribly, Carolynn Sue Miller Williams and husband, Hal of Electra and Susie Rapp Dickey of Wichita Falls.
