Carol Foster passed away peacefully during the early hours on Nov. 14, 2022 at her home. She was 78 years old and was born on Sept. 12, 1944, in Greeley, CO. Her father was Thomas Fry and her mother was Winifred Foster. She graduated from Greeley Central High School and attended Colorado State College for two years. She went to Texas to help her older sister with family. While there, she met her future mate for life and when his military organization moved to New Hampshire, she went with her sister and brother-in-law to their new home as well.
On an unforgettable date, 6-11-66, she married Steve and thus began 56 years of adventure. From New Hampshire, they moved back to Texas, then to Louisiana where her first daughter was born and to Florida. While Steve was in Thailand, she moved back to Greeley and then to New Jersey for six years where her second daughter was born. The journey continued to the Azores, Germany for three years and finally to Cheyenne where she lived for 51 years.
When Steve separated from the Air Force, they both went to work for the State of Wyoming. Carol began in the Revenue and Tax Division and finished in the Division of Criminal Investigation. After she left the State, she began new adventures of volunteering, playing games with friends, and her favorite activity of shopping. She volunteered at the Comea Shelter, Military Wives Club, and the Pink Boutique. She enjoyed playing Mahjong three times a week, Bunko, and Canasta. She was fond of going to the plays at the Candlelight Dinner Theater in Colorado.
She said she had no regrets in how she lived her life. She will be missed by her family and friends. She is survived by her husband, Steve, and her two daughters; Kecia and Meggan.
In lieu of flowers, you may give to your favorite charity. Graveside services for family will be held at a later date at the Cheyenne National Veterans Cemetery.
