Carol Lee Dendurent

July 5, 2012
Carol Lee Dendurent, 73, passed away at her Bonners Ferry area home June 30, 2012. Services will be held at 3 p.m. Friday, July 6, at the Church of Christ in Bonners Ferry.

Our mom, Carol Lee Dendurent, was born in Youngstown, Ohio, in 1938. She was a strong woman and mother who overcame many hardships. She raised three children; Sherry Russell, Susan Wagner and Sam Stoneham by herself and took them on the most amazing month long camping adventure throughout the United States and Canada that they would cherish for the rest of their life.

All of our lives, we witnessed our mother's many very generous acts to the people around her and people abroad and nationally. We also enjoyed her playfulness and natural joy, expressed in singing around the house and at church. Our mom also worked very hard, doing accounting for over thirty years at the City of Thousand Oaks to make ends meet.

She loved her many big dogs and was a master craftswoman who knitted, quilted, crocheted and collected an extensive Panda collection. She was married to Wendell Dendurent, and especially loved living her retirement days with him in her dream house in Idaho.

She loved to watch the deer and birds that came around her house. Her faith was very important to her and became the rock of her life.

She was preceded in death by her husband of 30 years. She is survived by her three children, seven grandchildren and four great grandchildren.

Family and friends are invited to sign Carol's book at www.bonnersferryfuneralhome.com. Arrangements are entrusted to the care of Bonners Ferry Funeral Home.
