ANGELSTAD - Carol Doris Angelstad, 78 years of Humboldt, passed away on Tuesday, March 27, 2012 at Quill Plains Centennial Lodge, Watson. Carol was born on November 27, 1933 at home in the Four Corners district, near Meadow Lake, to Bryan and Jennie (nee Moloney) Armstrong. She grew up there and attended the local country school. When Carol was 17, she contracted Tuberculosis and was sent to the Sanatorium in Prince Albert, where she remained for three years. It was here that she met her future husband, Vernon Angelstad. They were married on July 22, 1954 and shortly after their marriage, they moved to Humboldt, where they made their home and raised their two daughters. Carol worked from her home as a seamstress, creating many beautiful wedding gowns for local brides. She also worked at Eaton's and then began work at the Scotiabank. In 1971, Vern passed away, leaving Carol a young widow. She was transferred to Yorkton with the Scotiabank in 1977 and made this move with her new partner, Peter Faul. Upon retiring from the bank, Carol and Peter returned to Humboldt, where she lived until the present. In earlier years, Carol enjoyed lots of different crafts and tried her hand at oil painting. She was a member of the Legion Ladies Auxiliary and on the Waldsea Lake Regional Park Board. Carol enjoyed spending time at their cabin at Waldsea Lake with her family and especially loved gardening.
