Carol Anne Rowader, a beautiful spirit with a heart full of love, passed away peacefully on July 6, 2025, at Best Care Senior Living in Port Richey, Florida. She had just celebrated her 85th birthday.
Born on July 3, 1940, in Detroit, Michigan, Carol brought joy and kindness to everyone she met. She was known for her open arms, friendly nature, and the special way she made people feel welcome and loved. Carol had a zest for life and enjoyed the simple pleasures-especially bingo, camping, and poker, which brought her laughter and connection with others.
For the past fifty years, Carol was lovingly cared for by Margaret O'Dell Scott, whose devotion and companionship were a constant source of comfort and joy in her life.
Carol will be deeply missed by all who knew her. Her memory will live on in the hearts of those she touched with her warmth, generosity, and vibrant spirit.
Grace Memorial Gardens and Funeral Home is honored to be entrusted with the arrangements.
