MOULTON, Carol

CAROL MOULTON 1949 ~ 2025 It is with sorrow that we announce Carol Anne Moulton (nee McNeilly) passed away peacefully after a long illness on July 18, 2025 at Good Samaritan Society Park Meadows Village. She will be deeply missed by her family and friends.
Carol was predeceased by her parents, loving husband of nearly 30 years Herbert Lawrence (Larry) Moulton, sister Delores (Tkachuk) and brother Ron McNeilly. She leaves behind her sons Jason (Janay) of Lethbridge and Del (Kari) of Coaldale. Grandchildren Ethan, Jasper, Lily, and Jonas will always remember their Granny with great love and affection and will carry on her Christmas cookie tradition. Also surviving Carol is devoted sister Judy (Jerry) Spevakow of Calgary and cherished fiancé Armen Schaaf, as well as numerous sisters and brothers-in-laws, cousins, nieces and nephews.
Born on April 22, 1949, in Edmonton, Alberta to Mansel (Mac) and Edna McNeilly, Carol grew up in Edmonton and was married there to Larry Moulton on July 27, 1968. Carol and Larry left Edmonton for Nobleford, finally settling in Coaldale to raise their family. So many hilarious family stories about camping, fishing, and working on the Moulton farm near Turin will be cherished.
Carol loved her Coaldale community. She had many friends, was well-known for her happy and outgoing personality, and for 35 years most residents of Coaldale knew her as a warm and helpful staff member at the Saan (later Bargain) Store. Her great love of sports and competition meant that she could often be found in the hockey rink loudly cheering on Jason and Del as they played hockey. Carol herself always seemed to be competing in a tournament or league, with a particular passion for curling, softball and golf. Carol was also an active participant, and later organizer, of the Coaldale Fun Cribbage group which was started by Larry and his much-missed brother Bill. For her dedication to her job and positive impact on the community, Carol was recognized with a Coaldale Chamber of Commerce Award.
In addition to sports, Carol was always enthusiastic to jump into a game of Skip Bo, crib, or any other card or board game that her family and friends might suggest. Her skill and luck were well-known and often resulted in a skunking for those who tried to play her. In retirement, Carol and Armen enjoyed much of their time playing cards and helping to organize crib nights and tournaments in Coaldale, at the Army Navy & Airforce Veterans Club in Lethbridge, and in other towns around southern Alberta.
Despite declining health in the last few years, Carol remained positive. Jason, Del and Janay want to thank Kari for her devotion to Carol’s care. The family would also like to thank the nurses and doctors at Chinook Regional Hospital and the nurses and staff at Good Sams for their wonderful and compassionate care of Carol.
A celebration of life reception will be held at a later time.
