Montana, Carol C.

Carol C. (Cook) Montana, 84, of Berlin, passed away peacefully, surrounded by family, Monday, May 2, 2022, at Apple Rehab of Cromwell. Born in New Britain, the daughter of the late Joseph and Pearl (Yourwith) Cook, she had been a resident of Berlin for more than 50 years. She was the wife of Robert Montana. Carol was a dedicated and loving wife, mother, and grandmother. She prided herself on maintaining a well-run home and meticulously landscaped yard. Carol enjoyed travelling, cooking, ceramics, gardening, and spending time with her family. She did not enjoy winter weather, the miniblinds in her

apartment, ticks and other bothersome insects, the mill rate in Berlin and mongrel brands. Also, her kitchen was not a dance hall. In addition to her husband, Carol is survived by two daughters, Lisa and her husband, Walter Deptula Jr. of South Carolina, Lori Kendrick and her partner, Sousa Williams; three grandchildren, Paul, Caroline, and Courtney Kendrick; and her cat, Misty. She was predeceased by her infant son Craig Montana, and her son-in-law Marshall Kendrick. The family would like to thank the staff at Apple Rehab of Cromwell for their compassionate care. Funeral services will be held Friday, May 6, 2022, at 10:00 AM at St. Paul's Church, 485 Alling St., Kensington, CT. Burial will be private.
