Born on October 4, 1939, at Greeley Weld County General Hospital. Carry graduated from Eaton High School in 1957 and went on to earn her Bachelor of Science degree in nursing from the University of Colorado in 1961.
On July 1, 1961, she married her soulmate, John McNamara, with whom she shared a deep and loving bond until his passing. Carry dedicated 40 years of her life to nursing, making a significant impact in her community. Carry worked for Dr. Corona at Eaton Clinic for many years. Her commitment to caring for others was evident in her professional life as well as in her personal life.
Proud of her Swedish heritage and Irish last name, Carry raised three daughters—Donna (Allen), De Ann (Ron) Pfleiderer, and Jennifer—instilling in them strength and work ethics. She cherished her role as a grandmother to Cohlana and Codee and was a loving aunt to numerous nieces and nephews. She enjoyed gardening, reading, sewing and crocheting. She belonged to the Swedish club since she was a child.
Carry is preceded in death by her husband, John; her parents, Sigurd and Evelyn Carlson; her sister, Barb Hungenberg; her brother, Kenneth Carlson; and many beloved dogs and pets who brought her joy throughout her life.
