Carlene was born on August 1, 1943 in Greenville, Texas to James Carlton Perry and Juanita Orr Perry. Carlene and Robert A. Duncan were married on April 26, 1963 in Greenville, Texas.
Carlene was a nurse for Greenville’s Dr. Sandin for many years, and she is a member of Lake Fork Baptist Church. Five of the highlights of her sweet life were (and are) her five kids. Of course, in her mind "kids are kids” regardless of their ages, and she continued to “mother” those kids until receiving her angel wings. She has been a true blessing to all of her kids and grandkids.
Carlene did attend Greenville schools, and she has a host of personal friends in her GHS class of 1961.
She is survived by her husband, Robert Duncan; sons, Carl Garrett and wife Shannon, Rob Duncan and wife Christina; daughters Paige Clark and husband Chris, Tracy Duncan, and Kelly Lowe and husband Chris. She is also survived by grandchildren, Sean Garrett, Chad Garrett, Amber Garrett Denson, Matthew Clark, Ashleigh Clark Moore, Sarah Duncan, Beck Duncan, Cate Duncan, Bailey-Paige Lowe, Jacob Scott Lowe, and seven great-grandchildren.
She was preceded in death by her parents and her grandparents.
Pallbearers will be Chris Clark, Chris Lowe, Sean Garrett, Chad Garrett, Matthew Clark and Beck Duncan.
