Clara "Carnell" Weaver Millender, 91, of Okolona, Mississippi received her wings on Friday the 8th of October 2021 in DeRidder, Louisiana. God has called His finest gardener to tend the flowers in Heaven.

Carnell was sharp and witty. Always presentable, pleasant to be with and enjoyed life with much love and laughter. She had the most beautiful soul, forever kind and loving. Her smile was warm and inviting. Admired by many. She was a wonderful cook and baker, making the best biscuits ever, and baking cakes and pies for others special occasions. A few of her favorite things to do were traveling, to go dancing with friends, adding special touches to the scenery with her love of gardening, fishing, shopping, and watching Ole Miss Football and the New Orleans Saints.
