Carole Ann Holmes, age 75, of Golden, Missouri passed away peacefully Wednesday, June 12, 2024.

She was born November 19, 1948 in San Antonio, Texas the daughter of John Elwood and Etta Maurice (Williams) Mayer, who preceded her in death. Also preceding her in death was her stepfather, L.C. Wood.

On July 10, 1998 in Gower, Missouri Carole was united in marriage to Paul Holmes, who survives. Also surviving are one son, Travis Jarnagin and his wife Mandy of Seligman, Missouri; one stepson, Jeff Holmes and his wife Shelly Phelps of Oklahoma City, Oklahoma; two stepdaughters, Lisa Holmes and her husband John Vincent of Portland, Oregon and Angela Holmes of Excelsior Springs, Missouri; one brother, David Mayer and his wife Becky of Davenport, Oklahoma; two stepbrothers, Lynn Wood and his wife Debi of Chickasha, Oklahoma and Mike Wood and his wife Cindy of Chickasha, Oklahoma, and six grandchildren.

Carole's early life was marked by her graduation from Ninnekah High School in Ninnekah, Oklahoma, in 1967, followed by some college education that laid the groundwork for her future endeavors. Her professional journey was characterized by her dedication as a telephone operator for Bell Telephone Company. Later, Carole became part owner and office manager for Wood Ditching. She was an avid cat lover, always finding time to enjoy the company of her feline friends. A big fan of "The Incredible Dr. Pol," Carole would often be found watching the veterinary channel, captivated by the medical stories of animals and the people who care for them. Carole was a great cook and in her moments of leisure, she could be found crocheting. Music filled her home with joy, as did her love for gardening, where she cultivated beauty in every bloom. One of her greatest pleasures was riding motorcycles with Paul, feeling the freedom of the open road and the closeness of sharing adventures together.

No services are scheduled at this time. Cremation arrangements are under direction of Fohn Funeral Home in Cassville, Missouri.
