Carroll R. Garvin of Storm Lake died Monday, February 19, 2007, at the Buena Vista Regional Medical Center in Storm Lake.
Carroll was born December 23, 1932, in New Market, Iowa, to Rex and Charlotte (Smith) Garvin. He served in the United States Army during the Korean War before being honorably discharged. Carroll was united in marriage in Clarinda, Iowa, to Marian Sheirbon. The couple was blessed with two children: a son, Dennis, and a daughter, Vici.
Carroll enjoyed many pastimes, among them fishing and hunting. He liked to spend time working with his ponies.
