CASPER--Services for Leona Mae Carnline, 65, will be held Tuesday, Sept. 23, 2008 at 11 a.m. at the Newcomer Family Home in Casper. Viewing will be held at the services.
She died Sept. 20, 2008 at her home in Casper.
She was born Nov. 30, 1942 in Baker, Mont. to Robert Lee Breen and Helen Mae Moody.
She was the second of four children, and she grew up in Hardin, Mont. She married the love of her life, Charles Carnline, Dec. 2, 1961 in Sheridan, Wyo.
After moving to several locations, they settled in Hathaway, Mont. in 1978 to help her mother and stepfather run their business. She later went on to work for the post office in Hathaway, becoming the Post Master in 1984 where she remained until the closing of the post office in 1990.
Since the post office was in the same building as a restaurant and bar, and their home, she was in charge of all the businesses within the facility. During this time, she also was a care-giver for her ailing mother. In 1992, the family moved to Casper where she volunteered at Meals on Wheels and worked for Atlantic Pacific Postal until forced into retirement by a stroke on Jan. 1, 2002.
Even though the stroke left her unable to speak, she could still bring a smile to all who met and knew her. With the help of her family, she was still able to enjoy many things in life, including some traveling, mostly to visit family and friends.
She is survived by her son, Russell Carnline of Laurel, Mont.; three daughters, Sandy Carnline of Billings, Mont., Tina Easley of Casper and Rhashell Johnson of Casper; two sisters, Birdie Blankenship of Branson, MO., and Patty Breen of Colorado Springs, Colo.; brother, Tom Breen of Dale City, West Virginia; three step-brothers, Tim Patrick of Osage, Kan., Jimmy Patrick of California and Gary Patrick of Forsyth, Mont.; 12 grandchildren; and one great-granddaughter.
She was preceded in death by her father, mother, step-father, husband of 46 years, a step-sister and one daughter.
Newcomer Funeral Home will be in charge of the arrangements.
