Obituary for Carol Louise Walter

Carol Louise Walter, 89, of Oviedo, Florida, went to be with the Lord on Sunday, January 12, 2025.

Born in Port Huron, Michigan on January 21,1935 to Noel Johnston Baker and Mary Annetta Baker (Dorsey), she had fond memories of her time with them in the “house on the river” and endless stories from these early years that she enjoyed sharing. Her mother was the eldest of twelve, so there were many aunts, uncles and cousins in her life that she was close to and kept in touch with through the years.

In 1956, she married Frederick August Christian Walter III, and they moved to Florida to build their future together. He was the love of her life for their 59 years of marriage, until he passed in 2015. They tent camped their way through 47 of the United States with their daughters, enjoyed sailing, growing tropical plants, and traveling the world. They were adventurers on land and on the sea, and always curious explorers.

She and Fred were founding members of Hope Lutheran Church in Pompano Beach, Florida, helping to literally lay some of the building blocks for the structure and serving to grow the church into what it would become in the following decades.

Carol developed her bookkeeping and organizational skills in business school and used these to manage their rental properties, serve as Girl Scout troop leader, volunteer as a band parent, and do extensive amounts of volunteer work at Lutheran Haven where she lived for the past 20 years.

She leaves behind her children Gwen Jones and her husband Daniel, Karen Meenan and her husband William; her grand-children Derek Jones and his partner David, Ryan Jones and his wife Allie, Heather Hartzer (Jones) and her husband Jacob; and great-grandson Jack Sterling Jones.

Her memory will be carried in the hearts of all who loved her.
