It is with great sadness that we announce the peaceful passing of Carol Leona Harper on June 13, 2025, at the age of 86, surrounded by love.

Carole was born May 23, 1939, to Gwen & Al Loney in Walla Walla, Washington. In fifth grade, she moved to Connell where she stayed through high school.

Carole was a dedicated wife to Larry Harper, her husband of 40 years. She loved fiercely and was loved by all. She was the mother to all who loved her. She enjoyed being outside, traveling, carving, golfing, playing bingo, fishing with family, and of course, gambling, as she was an avid card player. She was stubborn as they come, but more than that was her spitfire sense of humor. She could make anyone laugh anytime.

Carole is survived by her husband, Larry; her daughters, Lori and Elizabeth; two granddaughters; ten great-grandchildren and four great-great-grandchildren. She also leaves behind numerous extended family members and many beloved friends.

There will be a viewing at Mueller's Greenlee Funeral Home in Pasco on Friday, June 20, 2025, from 5:00 p.m. -8:00 p.m. There will be a graveside service at Mountain View Cemetery in Connell on Saturday June 21, 2025, at 2:00 p.m.
