ALMA CARBON
(1907 - 2009)

Alma Reitmeyer Carbon, age 102, a Manitowoc resident, died on Wednesday evening, Sept. 30, 2009, surrounded by the love of her family.

Alma was born on Jan. 12, 1907, in Cato, daughter of the late Joseph and Nellie (Stefl) Reitmeyer. She attended local schools and graduated from Lincoln High School in 1925. In August of 1927, she married Clarence P. Carbon in Illinois. He preceded her in death in June of 1963. Upon her marriage, the couple moved to Manitowoc where she resided and raised her family of five children. She was a member of St. James Episcopal Church, St. Faith's Guild, and the Braille Club.

Alma was not just Mrs. Carbon but "Nana" to everyone who knew and loved her. She enjoyed her many travels throughout the years as well as cooking, baking, canning, sewing, knitting and crocheting. She left us with many happy memories and her loving kindness and gentleness will live on forever in our hearts. We love you Nana/Mom.

Survivors include her five children: Marilyn J. (Robert) Schilling, Madison; Clarence (Liese) Carbon Jr., Manitowoc; Donald (Carolyn) Carbon, Manitowoc; David (Jean) Carbon, Reno, Nev.; Suzanne (Randall) Avery, Manitowoc; seven grandchildren; 12 great-grandchildren; one great-great-grandchild; five half brothers and sisters. Nieces, nephews, other relatives and friends also survive. She was preceded in death by her parents: Joseph and Nellie Reitmeyer; her husband, Clarence; her stepmother: Magdalyn Reitmeyer; two sisters and one brother.

Funeral services will be held at 11 a.m. on Monday, Oct. 5, 2009, at St. James Episcopal Church, 434 N. 8th St., Manitowoc. The Rev. Diane Murray will officiate with burial to follow at Evergreen Cemetery. Relatives and friends may call at the Church on Monday from 10 a.m. until the time of service at 11 a.m.
