Carol Neufeld went to her heavenly home July 31, 2022 in her home surrounded by family just as she wished it to be.
Carol Ann (Pobis) Neufeld was born on January 9, 1954 in St. Louis, Missouri to Warren and Ruby Pobis. Carol lived in St. Louis until she was married to Roy D. Neufeld of Larslan, Montana. They farmed in Larslan all of their 53 married years, first with Roy’s father and mother and later with their two sons and their families. Carol and Roy have three children; Roy Allen, Jennifer Annette, and Curtis Ryan. The couple also resided in Billings, Montana, mostly during Carol’s cancer treatments and winters. Carol was a member of the Lustre MB Church and WMS and many organizations over the years. She was passionate with the Relay for Life effort when she was able.
Carol loved the Lord and loved people and her quick and genuine smile endeared people to her. She had a most loving and forgiving spirit, always ready to share her faith the reason for her hope in life and eternity. She loved family and was a mother first to all of her children and grandchildren. Sharing and teaching them everything she knew with unlimited patience and time. While Carol knew all the hard work that make farms work as well as providing for family with garden produce and home care she had a passion for quilting. Not only did she share and teach that with all of her grandchildren but also used quilts as a calling card to share her love for Jesus with any fellow cancer patients she encountered. Through the 14 years of her courageous cancer journey she encouraged, consoled and shared God’s love with countless friends, with or without, cancer. Those that she met became her friends, not to be forgotten either in person or prayer. Her strong and unbending faith was a living example for all of how we are intended to walk through this life, day by day depending on Jesus and not our own ability or reason. Her tremendous God given ability to forgive is a feature of Carol’s life that clearly demonstrates her loving spirit and reconciling differences from her early years enabled her to have a life long relationship with all of her family.
It is with great gratitude that Carol and her family thanks the countless friends, relatives and acquaintances that unfailingly prayed for her and with her through this long fight. Words cannot express the deep appreciation and love for the amazing, caring OB/GYN oncology team at the Billings Clinic. The care and friendship of all of the doctors and staff of the Glasgow FMDH clinic, hospital and ER are beyond measure and a special thanks to Dr. Ross for making it possible for Carol to be in her home surrounded by family in her last days. So many caregivers that went beyond the professional role to become personal friends that she enjoyed spending time with. So much so that she “relaxed” on her “spa days” in the infusion center as she was “pampered” on her long chemo treatments.
Carol will reunite with those that went before her including her father Warren Pobis and mother Ruby (Birlew) Cook; father and mother-in-law, Jake and Ida (Richert) Neufeld and many other family. She is survived by her husband Roy D. Neufeld; children: Roy Allen Neufeld (Jodi), Jennifer Reddig (Brandon) and Curtis Neufeld (Lisa); grandchildren: Tiffany Garner (Reuben), Austin Neufeld (Madison), Shelby Norcutt (Clint), Amber Ann Reddig, Clay Reddig, Samantha Neufeld, Jake Neufeld and Piper Carol Neufeld; great-grandchildren: Jace Garner, Lake Neufeld and Blakely Garner.

Neufeld family, our thoughts and prayers are with you. Carol was a very special Lady, with that being said, Heaven will be a extra special place with her presence. Her smile was contagious, We will dearly miss her. God Bless
Shirley Mozena says
She was the epitome of love and truly filled with the Holy Spirit. She always signed her notes, “Love & Prayers” and I believe Carol meant them. She loved her husband and family. I miss knowing Carol is no longer on earth, but I also know she is with her Savior. I look forward to meeting and sharing again in heaven.
Prayers for all of those who loved her. She will be sorely missed.
Carolyn Bachtold says

Our prayers are with you Roy and your entire family. Carol’s life was a witness to us and many others for which we are grateful – certainly she has led many to the Lord through allowing the Holy Spirit to use her in this earthly life. Your loss is great and she will be missed as you all journey without her but with the blessed knowledge that you will be reunited. Love and prayers for all.

Fond memories of her whenever I would visit Roy Allen on sleepovers, etc. She went out of her way to take care of me during those times. My condolences!
George & Miranda says
Carol was very kind and she loved to shared the good in the Church. In summer in 2014 we went to Lustre for high school graduation ceremony and Miranda recognized her at Billings airport and she was very delighted and she shared this in the Church in the following Sunday. God bless Carol’s extended family, and God bless Lustre!
Kathy Fuhrman says
I remember when Carol came to be a part of the Neufeld family, Opheim High School, and the community. I will always treasure Carol for being such a GRACIOUS and KIND lady and an outstanding role model. I so wanted to be more like Carol! She touched so many lives in such a good way. She was an angel on earth and now is a true angel at Home with the Lord. I will miss you, Carol!!!
To Roy and all of Carol’s family, I pray for peace and comfort in your tender and broken hearts. Time does not heal the emptiness, but the Lord will soften the pain. Carol is always with you in your hearts!!! She lives on in memories!!!! Prayers, love and hugs. May God’s blessings be with you.
