Caroline Parker Durrance, age 65, of Americus, Georgia, passed away on August 26, 2025. Born December 17, 1959, in Plant City, Florida, she was the daughter of the late James Walter Parker and Mary Frances Dorman.

Caroline was a loving and caring mother, devoted wife, and a hard-working woman who held her family together through life's seasons. She was known for her gentle spirit, her deep love of butterflies, and the unwavering way she cared for those around her. To her family and friends, she was the heart of the home-a constant source of strength, love, and support.

She is survived by her husband, Jeff Durrance of Americus; sons, Gregory Durrance (Kindra) of Florida, and Michael Savage (Natasha) of North Carolina; brother, Oneal Parker of Americus; and sister, June Keen of Americus. She also leaves behind extended family and friends who will carry her memory in their hearts.

A private celebration of life will be held by the family at a later date.

The family wishes to thank everyone for the love, prayers, and support shown during this difficult time. Your kindness brings comfort and is deeply appreciated.
