Carol Mounteer, Kearns/Cedar City
Carol Louise Mounteer passed away on Monday, February 26, 2024 in Cedar City after a valiant fight with acute renal failure at the age of 78. Carol was born on August 8, 1946 in Richfield. Carol was the fourth child of Marvin Charles “Cotty” and Louise Spencer Mounteer.
Carol grew up with many challenges in her life, both intellectual and physical. She was very loved by her parents and siblings. She attended elementary and high school in Escalante Utah. Carol was a great baseball player in her younger years. She was very generous and loved to share anything she had. She was a proud member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. Carol’s Aunt Effie taught Carol the basics of embroidery work. From there, she spent many hours embroidering dish towels, pillow cases, tablecloths and table runners for her friends and loved ones. She won many ribbons in the county and state fairs. She loved to watch Music and the Spoken Word, Little House on the Prairie and the game show network. She relished a good, cold root beer, dark chocolate M&M’s and York Peppermint Patties. She enjoyed puzzles, coloring and ceramics. She especially appreciated visits from her family.
After the death of Carol’s parents, she moved to Salt Lake City and later Kearns and lived with her sisters Marva and Peggy who tenderly loved and cared for her. After Peggy and then Marva passed away, Carol moved to Cedar City in June 2022 where she has since lived and been cared for by her brother Jerry and his wife Beverlee until she passed. Carol has been a blessing in our lives and has taught our family so much. We know she is enjoying a beautiful reunion and has reached her full potential as she was reunited with her eternal family.
Carol was preceded in death by her parents; siblings: Myrna, Marva, Paul, Scott, Peggy, and Joy; nieces: Krisaundra and Briona Mounteer; and nephew, Quinn Mounteer.
She is survived by her brother Jerry (Beverlee) Mounteer, Cedar City; and sister-in-law, Renee Mounteer, Springville. She is also survived by several beloved nieces and nephews and great nieces and nephews who adored Carol and loved serving her.
The family would like to express their appreciation to Ethan Bunker and Christine Bott of Sun Tree Hospice for the loving and respectful care they provided for her. A special thanks also to Berne Tom and Shoni John who became dear and caring friends to Carol.
