Cora Ellen Carden (nee Moss) was born October 5, 1921 in Neelyville, MO. She was the wife of the late Ollie Miller Carden Jr., mother of Frances L. Shaughnessy, Catherine H. Maness (Robert), and Stephen L. Carden (Carla), grandmother, great grandmother, and homemaker. Cora was preceded in Death by her husband, sons Richard and Michael Carden, and Granddaughter Stephanie Carden. Cora’s family meant everything to her. She dearly loved her grandchildren and great Grandchildren. She was a Christian woman and attended Calvary Church in St. Peters, MO until health issues prevented her attendance. Her favorite things included Oreo cookies and milk in the middle of the night and spending hours shopping at the grocery store and traveling the world. She was witty and intelligent and could be a great help at pulling pranks. Mom was one of those people who could be hard to live with but will be impossible to live without!
