Mari Evelyn Carter

February 15, 2019

Reminder: Mari's Celebration of Life will be held at CSU's Lory Student Center, Long's Peak Room, April 24, Wednesday, 2pm. See attached directions for parking in the Engineering or Library parking lots ($1.75/hr). Parking is also available in the Lake Street Parking Garage. Additionally, guests may park SW of the old KMart, take the Max to University Station, and walk west to the Lory Student Center. The Long's Peak Room is on the 3rd floor at the south end of the building so, if available, parking spots to the west of the Library would be closest. Mari Evelyn Carter, 84, of Fort Collins shed her physical body February 15, 2019, surrounded by loved ones. Born in Wilkes Barre, PA in 1934 to Helen Evelyn Sutton, Mari’s early childhood was spent in eastern Colorado (Flagler) where she was raised in the loving home of her grandparents, Emma and Will Sutton. She attended schools in Burlington, Byers, San Francisco (CA), Denver, Fort Collins High School (1952 graduate), and Colorado State University where she was a member of Delta Zeta Sorority and ROTC. Mari met Everette “Joe” Carter while at CSU. Married in 1954, they had two daughters and spent 56 adventure-filled years together until Joe passed in 2010. Mari’s many secretarial and administrative positions included those with Markley Motors, Colorado Game and Fish, CSU Bookstore, Larimer County Court, and Community Corrections. Mari never met a stranger, loved words and language, reading, decorating, crochet, family, friends, and a good joke. She was a warrior through many challenges and though she battled breast cancer for over 17 years, a thoracic aneurysm took her life. She lived and went out on her own terms. Mari is survived by her daughters: Leslie Carter, Loveland, and Darene Hiatt (Michael) Fort Collins, grandson Austin Hiatt (Allison) Frederick, granddaughter Aubrey Hiatt, Fort Collins, brother Lester Ivan “Jerry” Sherman (Kay) Durango, niece Kate Enggren (Jerry) Venice, CA, and nephews, Scott Sherman (Karen) Salon, IA, and Brett Sherman (Lindsay) Broomfield. She was preceded in death by her husband, Everette L. “Joe” Carter (2010) and beloved pet dachshunds: Buttons, Judy Bug, and Artie. A Celebration of Life will be held April 24, 2pm, Colorado State University, Lory Student Center Long’s Peak Room. Visit Goesfuneralcare.com to send online condolences and read Mari’s full obituary. Memorial contributions may be made to Realities for Children at realitiesforchildren.com. Indicate “In Memory of Mari Carter” in the Comments section.
