Our loving mother Carole Louise (Judkins) Coble, a long time resident of Klamath Falls, went home to be with her Lord and Savior on January 20th, 2021 at the age of eighty. A celebration of life will be held in Bible Baptist Church on Friday January 29th, 2021 at 11:00 a.m., located at 4849 So. 6th St. Klamath Falls, Or. Burial will follow at Klamath Memorial Park Cemetery next to her husband, Harold.
Carole was born on October 19th, 1940 to Kenneth and Mary Ann (Walker) Warren. She spent her life growing up in southern California where she met and married Harold Dewayne Judkins on November 8th, 1957.
They had four beautiful children, Elizabeth (Beth), Jennifer, John and Susan. They were married for 18 wonderful years until the passing of her husband on April 1st, 1975.
Our mother held different jobs in her lifetime and one of them was being a homemaker and, later in life, obtaining her California realtor license. Her last job of 20 years was at Linkville Assisted Living where she took pride in her work as a housekeeper and cared so deeply for the tenants.
After retiring at the age of seventy-four, mom loved spending time with her faithful friend (her dog) Callie that she loved so very much. Mom loved and enjoyed being out in the sunshine, loved family gatherings with her loved ones, laughing, picture taking, telling stories and spending time while eating together at family BBQ’s. These were her favorite moments that she treasured.
Mom also loved working in her yard, camping, fishing, trips to the ocean, planting flowers, watching the cats, the deer and other animals that would come through her yard and she enjoyed her adventurous trips to see family. She also enjoyed theater, music, singing, especially ELVIS, dancing, watching college football, sipping green tea and spending time with her grandchildren and great-grandchildren. She attended Bible Baptist Church for many years and enjoyed lunch afterwards with family and friends.
We will always treasure each moment, memory, hug and smile. She will always be remembered for being the most loving mother, grandmother (Lamar) (Grams) and great-grandmother a family could ask for (blessed with). Mom was a loving sister, aunt, niece, cousin and friend to many.
She is survived by her daughter and son in-law Elizabeth (Beth) and Jack Bowers, daughters Jennifer Kandra and Susan Kennedy, son and daughter in-law John and Peggy Judkins, brothers Rick Warren, Larry Warren and Howard Warren, sister Punky Harrison and many nieces and nephews, grandchildren Cameron Forney, Ryan and Chantry Forney, Erin Forney, John and Patty Bowers, Jaime and Justin Riach, Cody and Teri Kennedy, Carolyn Kennedy, Sarah Kennedy, Tara Kennedy, Ashley and Channing Chears, Heather Kandra, Taylor Kandra, Jason Judkins, Allison Judkins, Madeleine Walton and Collin Walton, great grandchildren Stormy Tecumseh, Tawnee Tecumseh, Jordyn Bowers, Alex Morgan, Destiny Perez, Rylee Perez, Eli Miller, Noah Miller, Max Kincaid, Brayden Chears, Cora-lee Chears, Gunner Kennedy, Archer Kennedy, Thatcher Kennedy and Rowan Hook.
