Carla Jean Petrini passed away on March 23, 2019 in Great Falls, Montana.

She was 78 years old, born on July 7, 1940. Jean was the daughter of Andrew and Genevieve Holien.

Mom is remembered for her feisty sense of humor, unconditional love for her family, which included her dogs; Fanny, Clyde, Gracie and Molly, all of the squirrels in the neighborhood, butterflies, humming birds and let’s not forget her love of lady bugs… but only the ones with seven spots.

Mom loved people; she loved hearing your story and had a gift for making those around her feel important and loved. This gift served her well during the 25 years she spent bartending. She loved her job at Caseys Bar & Whitefish Lake Golf Course.

On August 21, 1981, mom married Stephen T. Petrini and they moved to Great Falls, where she lived for the remainder of her life.
