While retired in Utah, Carol enjoyed time in her back yard, watching her grandchildren play and watching Jacksonville Jaguars football, while eating chicken wings. Carol was a creative force and enjoyed painting, writing, reading, word games, classic movies, music (especially her son’s jazz performances), and comedy of the goofy and divergent variety. Carol was also an avid and unrelenting fan of the Jacksonville Jaguars, even during most years of rare and intermittent victories. Carol loved her dogs like her own children and spoiled them like she did her grandchildren. Carol is survived by her children: Greta A. Matzen of Denver, CO, and Max Matzen and wife Mayumi (Nishimoto) Matzen of Logan, UT. Three grandchildren: Seiji Matzen, Yuji Matzen and Mei Matzen. Sibling: Dale Bradley. Loving Dog: Wilma.
