Carole Margaret (Garibaldi) Morrison
March 23, 1938 - April 10, 2023
Carole embarked on her new journey on April 10, 2023.
She is survived by her husband Ed, daughter Christina (Henry) Cooper and granddaughter Jessica. She is also survived by her son John (Maria) Morrison, grandson Johnny and granddaughter Olivia. Her older son, Jeff (Robin) Morrison, passed in 2022 and is survived by daughters Katelyn and Mackenzie.
Carole was born in San Francisco to Margaret and GioBatta Garibaldi. Her father and uncles, who immigrated from northern Italy, were founders of the University Mound Nursery located in the Portola District of San Francisco. Carole graduated from Norte Dame High School in 1956.
Carole and Edward were married in 1960 and moved to Santa Rosa in 1963. She was loved by many and admired for her nonjudgmental spirit and positive approach to life. Carole especially loved her garden, traveling to many different countries and R.V. trips she and Ed took with, "The Happy Hookups." Ed greatly misses his lifelong partner.
Her grandkids loved her ability to slow down to listen and explore with them. They loved making her laugh and being goofy together. Her laughter and kindness will be missed by all her friends and family.
A celebration of her life will be scheduled in the near future.
While Carole had a full life, she was expecting to enjoy more adventures. In her honor, and in leu of flowers, please embark on an adventure you have been putting off and don't forget to slow down and smell the roses along the way.
"A toast to Carole, a life well lived!"
