Her compassion for her students and ability to help them was noted by all those she worked with.

She was introduced to Guenther Feiste by mutual friends in August 1993, and they were married on August 12, 1994. Their loving marriage lasted 30 years right up to her passing on Christmas Eve morning 2024, at home surrounded by family. They lovingly held hands until her last breath, honoring their vows before Christ as she returned home to our Lord and Savior.

Carnie loved her husband and family. She was self-taught in quilting, sewing, gardening and cooking of which she loved to do. Her home-made chicken noodle soup, mac & cheese, and malts were much sought after by family and friends. Among her many talents, she would always exquisitely decorate their home for every occasion and created a warm loving home and environment for family and guests alike.
