Margaret Carol Rigdon, 78, of Collinsville, passed away peacefully at her home on the evening of Sunday, November 2, 2025, surrounded by her loved ones.
Carol will be remembered as a loving wife, mother, daughter, grandmother, and friend. She loved God and wanted everyone she loved to know God as well. She was a long-time and devoted member of Duffee Church of Christ of Little Rock. She was known to have a generous and giving heart, helping anyone in need.
Carol worked for many years with the Mental Health Associations locally, but most recently, she enjoyed being a homemaker and caregiver to her mother and aunt. Although she had her own health issues, she was always attentive to the needs of everyone around her. She truly believed love and patience conquers all. Her absence will be deeply felt by all who knew and loved her.

Carol was preceded in death by her father, William Everett Talbert; son, Christopher Wayne Rigdon; sister, Mary Ann Pickard; father and mother-in-law, Odis Edward and Mildred Laudine Rigdon; aunt, Johnnie Reid; and brother-in-law, Donald Lee Rigdon.
