Carol Elaine Rands Fessler
1935 - 2018

Early Life: Carol was born January 11, 1935, in Ogden, Utah, the oldest child of Morrell Roland and Josephine Annie Watkins Rands.
Life’s Work | Service | Interests: She was married to Glenn Fredric Fessler in the Los Angeles Temple of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. Together they raised five children. Carol was a devoted and loving mother who sacrificed her personal time and talents to make sure her children were blessed with the things she thought they needed. Most importantly, providing a home her children would be comfortable bringing their friends to and she treated them all like one of her own. She always had freshly baked cookies, brownies and other snacks ready and all felt welcome when coming to the Fessler home. Everyone who met Carol instantly became one of her friends. Carol’s home was the place that family and friends gathered for holidays and special events. Later in her life, Carol developed type 2 diabetes which began to take a toll on her physical body, ultimately resulting in the loss of most of her eyesight, the loss and disfiguration of her toes and feet. She also developed skin cancer which took one of her ears and a portion of her nose. Despite being unable to walk, read, cook or drive for many years, she loved to visit with her family and those around her at her assisted living facilities. Through it all, she never gave up hope that one day the medical doctors would come up with a treatment that would allow her to walk and see again. Carol will be missed by all who knew her. Carol Elaine Rands Fessler, residing in Hemet, California, passed away early Sunday morning, January 7, 2018, four days prior to her 83rd birthday.
Family Message: "As members of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints we believe that while Carol has left this life she is now freed from her physical limitations and awaits the remainder of her family to join her when their mission upon the earth is complete. We take comfort in knowing that Carol is not lost to us forever and that in the Lord’s good time we will be rejoined with Carol and our families that have left this life."
