Our beloved wife, mother and grandmother, Eloise Roberta Carson (Musser) died on July 9th, 2025 after a short illness. She was 82 years old.

Eloise was the heart of our home and family. She raised three children, David, Deidre and Deanna in a happy and loving home to be independent and thoughtful adults. Eloise was married for 64 years to her soulmate, David, who was the heartbeat of the family. As a grandmother to 8 grandchildren, she was the "fun grandma." Playing games, teasing and generally spoiling them rotten. What a blessing it was for her to enjoy the last few years of her life with 2 great granddaughters Harleigh and Presley. Of course they could not do nothing wrong and anything they wanted, she made sure they got.

Eloise was always an avid sports fan.  She loved cheering on the Bengals and her favorite collegiate team UC Bearcats. Eloise in her younger years enjoyed bowling and playing league volleyball. At Rutland High School she was a cheerleader, in the ensemble and robed choir and played the bass drum in the marching band.

Eloise was known for her sweet laugh and kind heart. She was the heart and soul of our family, and she will be forever loved and dearly missed.
