Carol Ann (Noble) Haukeli Obituary
Passed away January 9, 2014 in Phoenix, Arizona. She was born December 25, 1937 in Spokane, Washington to Leo and Hazel Noble. Carol always wanted to follow the sun and lived much of her life in Arizona, California and Colorado. She married the love of her life, John Haukeli, Sr., in 1962. They lived all over the Pacific Northwest while raising their family. In 1981 they made the move to Arizona with most of their kids in tow. It was a place they would always love and return to over and over. More than anything on earth, Carol loved her family. They were everything to her. Almost every story she told started with the words, ?While we were raising those five kids??. Her family was where she found all her joy. When the grandkids came along, that joy grew and grew. Her whole family will miss her forever. But knowing she is now with John makes it hurt a little less. She was kind, generous, loving and a friend to everyone. She had a shoulder or an ear for anyone who needed her. She simply never said ?no?. She was preceded in death by her beloved husband, John. Survivors include her children Terry (Kelly) Barnhill, Dave Barnhill, John (Shawnna) Haukeli, Mark (Paula) Haukeli and Kelli (Jimmy) Haukeli Coyle. Her brother Jerry (Catherine) Noble. Her grandchildren Chad (Brittany), Lindsay (Arthur), Jenna, Colbie, Morgan, Anna, Sarah, Jessie and Johnny and her great grandchild Zoey. In-laws Ing and Dan Fackrell and Esther Maddox and numerous nieces and nephews and life-long friends. Our hearts are heavy but knowing Mom is in paradise makes it easier to bear. A time of viewing 10 am to 7 pm Thursday on January 16, 2014. A graveside service will be held on January 17, 2014 at 11 am at Greenwood Memorial Terrace.
