Carol Wells

August 20, 1943 - October 8, 2020

Carol Ann Wells was born in Enid, Oklahoma on Friday, August 20, 1943 one of four girls to Earl Lee and Anita Jane (Pittman) Henderson. She passed from this life on Thursday, October 8, 2020 surrounded by family at her home in Broken Arrow. Her family moved around as her father was in the military, but she graduated from Tulsa Central High School in 1959. She met the love of her life in Sanford Wayne Wells and after dating for awhile they married on December 18, 1961 in Tulsa. She was a stay at home mom and enjoyed raising her three daughters. Carol was the type of mom that they could bring their friends home to and any teenager who needed a meal or a place to stay was welcome in their home. She loved to cook and was an avid bird watcher. An active member of the Eastern Star for many years, Carol was also a member of Beta Sigma Phi, First United Methodist Church of Broken Arrow, and a proud Republican. You could often find her volunteering for different causes either at church or in the community. She was “Granny” to her grandchildren and always told her family “I love you.” She was a beautiful lady, both inside and out and will be missed by many.
