Carolyn Houchin Fielder, age 69, died on November 3, 2024, at her home in Seneca, SC with family by her side after a long battle with Alzheimer’s Disease.
Carol was born Franklin, Indiana on August 14, 1955 to parents Lloyd and Audrey (Butler) Houchin. She graduated from Warren Central High School in Bowling Green, KY in 1973. Carol primarily spent her career in Quality Control in the automotive industry.
She met her husband, Erby Fielder, while they were both employed at Holley Automotive. The two were married on July 21, 1984 at the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints in Bowling Green. They spent the next 40 years taking exceptional care of one another.
Carol enjoyed jewelry making, Barbie collecting, music, and movies. She was an avid Disney fan spending many years visiting Walt Disney World making and enjoying memories with her husband, children, grandchildren, and great-grandson. She will be remembered for her smile, always happy and joyful when spending time with others. Everyone was “the star of the show” in her life, making each person feel as such. She most enjoyed taking care of her family who never left her thoughts.
