Carol Rae Anderson (Wakeley), passed away peacefully on August 31 at the Sullivan Park Care Center in the Spokane Valley. She was born on April 26, 1934 in Spokane to Chauncey and Beverly Wakeley. She was raised by her incredible Dad with the help of many adoring Wakeley Aunt’s. As a member of the large Wakeley family in Spokane, she enjoyed 85 wonderful years shared with family and friends. She graduated from Rogers High School in 1952 and married Thomas W. Andersen in 1953 and they divorced in 1966. In 1976 she married Ronald Anderson and they divorced 2 years later.
She is survived by son Tom Andersen (wife Pam), Bellevue, WA, daughter Debi Banka (husband Ron), Spokane, WA, 5 grandchildren and 8 great grandchildren. She loved dancing, bowling, and playing cards and most of all spending time with friends. She worked at URM in Spokane for 25 years where she made many lifelong friends.

Her loving family wants to thank her many caring friends and the incredible staff at the Sullivan Park Care Center for the love they showed her over the years. She was loved by everyone and will be missed and remembered forever.
