Carolyn June Carter, 74, passed away peacefully on March 8, 2025. She was born in Pasadena, TX on June 6, 1950 to Susie M. and Gerald B. Carter, now deceased. The family moved to California after Carolyn graduated from Sam Rayburn High School in 1968. After graduating from California Polytechnic State University, she devoted herself to social work at the Red Cross for many years. Returning to Houston in the 1980’s, Carolyn worked at Shell Oil for several years as a purchasing agent and Geotech. After a debilitating illness, Carolyn returned to California and spent her last 28 years in Turlock.
Carolyn is survived by her older sister, Kathy Stoltz, her younger brother Fred Carter, nephews and her nephews Alan Troy Stoltz and Travis Wade Stoltz and their families, numerous cousins, and her dog, Buddy.
She was a free spirit who loved the beach, locomotives and her pets. She will be missed.
Thank you to Luetta Brooks and Sherry, her caregivers who helped Carolyn so much. Your kindness is so appreciated.
