Carol Joyce Call “Grammy” , 82, of Montague TX, left this world peacefully surrounded by family and friends on Sunday, February 2nd, 2025.
A private graveside service will take place with family and friends at a later date at Rosston Cemetery. She will be buried with her beloved son James Brossart who preceded her in death.
Carol was born on February 23, 1942, and is the daughter of Joyce Penton and Augustus Call. She loved to tell the story of being born in a train caboose in Gainesville, TX. Carol grew up in Gainesville and Skykomish, WA. She told many stories of fishing with her dad, Gus at Lake Texoma and jumping off boulders in the mountains of Skykomish into the Skykomish river. She loved to talk about the antics of her brother Jim, who was the ultimate prankster. She was mostly raised by her stepmom Dean and dad Gus.
Carol moved to Montague, TX in the early 80’s and was the founder of Quicklean Services, the first solid waste company in the county. She grew a small business into a thriving company to support herself, her kids, and her grandchildren. There is nothing that she wouldn’t do for her family. She ran the business with her son Paul; daughter Emy, Deanna and son-in-law Damon. She was the ultimate gardener raising asparagus that folks would come and pick on the honor system. She loved her Bouvier dogs, Shadrach, Hagar, Pepper, Titus, Silky and Petrosh. Petrosh was with her along with family when she said goodbye. They will all meet her at the Rainbow bridge. She loved her sulcata turtle Crush. She loved her roses, lilies, her herb garden and her fresh eggs. She will be missed by everyone.
She is preceded in death by her parents Joyce Penton, Gus and Dean Call, sons Clifton Brossart and James Brossart, sister Paula Mordford, and brother James Call.
Carol is survived by her sister Delores; children Deanna Tofte of Wichita Falls, TX, Paul Brossart of Montague, TX, and Amelia Brossart of Williston, ND; grandchildren, Jerrod, Kyle, Catherine, Sydney, Vance and Remington; great-grandchildren, Amelia, Annalee, Vernon Kate, Easton, Knox and Conway; as well as numerous nieces, nephews, great-nieces and great-nephews.
She will see her sons James and Clifton again and await those she loves and those who love her.
Arrangements entrusted to the White Family Funeral home of Bowie, Texas.
Carol, I know in my heart you already have the biggest garden planted up there because we all know you couldn't wait to get those hands in that dirt! As well as taking everyone under your wing and teaching them all your tricks and techniques. It didn't take you long to win over my heart. You had a hard exterior and stubborn as a mule you were but you had one of the purest of hearts and I miss you dearly. It is never good bye but I will see you soon. And always be safe out there on them roads, yes ma'am I will.
Rest peacefully ms. Carol. You were loved - John 5:28 & 29
Mom Carol was the best person anyone could ever know. She would do anything for anyone, and when she loved you, you were loved with her all. She didn't mix words, and told you what she thought, weather you liked it or not. They're is so much that I love about this amazing lady, and God surely chose the best when he came for her. I'm going to miss you mom, keep them all in control, as I know you will. This is never goodbye, but see you later. I will look forward to the day that we get to see each other again. Love you beautiful lady! One day I will make you another margarita. In the meantime, I will have one for us both. Many Prayers up for her family and friends.
