Carolyn E. Rusmisel

In Loving Memory of Carolyn Rusmisel.

Carolyn Rusmisel, born March 12, 1964, was called home on November 2, 2026, at the age of 62.

Carolyn was a strong, independent, hardworking woman who loved unconditionally and always cared for others. She taught her family to stay strong, keep pushing forward, and remember that everything happens for a reason and everything will be okay. She loved wolves, Native American culture, and dream catchers.

She is survived by her son, Kenneth Williams; daughter, Mary Roethemeyer; son-in-law, William Roethemeyer; daughter-in-law Brooke Williams; grandchildren Timothy, Jonathan, Abigayle, Rebekka, and Dominic; siblings Angelina Gallegos, Inez Chavez, Evelyn Delisel, and Terry Chavez; the Sieger family; and many other loved ones.

She was preceded in death by her mother, Joann Sieger; first husband, Steven Williams; nephew Robert Chavez; great-grandson, Riley Williams; and other beloved family members.

Forever loved, deeply missed, and never forgotten.
