They made their home on her grandparents' family farm for 28 years, raising their family, farming, and running various businesses. The couple moved to Bristol in 1983. Carol was the power behind her husband in all aspects of their life together. She was truly, the ultimate farm wife. Carol was famous for serving countless meals to whoever Bud brought home for dinner throughout their marriage. Carol supported Bud in all his endeavors, including the City of Bristol and the Bristol Community Store. She stood proudly along side her husband as he was recognized and honored with a Hometown Leadership award, which they traveled to Washington, DC to receive in 2000.

Grateful for having shared her life is one daughter, Karen (Dan) Sumner of Watertown, and 5 sons: Lauren (Kathy) of Bristol, Paul (Karen) of Webster, Greg (Mary) of Bristol, Doug (Rhonda) of Bristol, and Keith (Kerry) of Hutchinson, MN. Her 19 grandchildren and 15 great-grandchildren were very important in her life, and were never forgotten on birthdays or at holidays with the help of her special calendar.

She leaves behind Margaret (Erwin) Wattier of Bristol, Leona (Larry) Wattier, of Langford, Eunice (Ronald) Hanson of Rapid City, Noel (Kenneth) Anderson of Webster, and also a sister-in-law, Jeanne Skaare of Bristol. Several nieces, nephews and their children were also held dear in her heart. Meeting Carol at Heaven's door will be her husband, one brother, John Leo Skaare, and her parents. Rachael Johnson Anderson put into words how many people feel about this incredible woman: "If I can be a wife, mother, or grandmother who remotely resembles the character of my grandma, I will be proud. It is rare to look at someone in your life who you do not have one single negative memory or thought of, even in the slightest detail. Grandma, you are truly remarkable."
