Carol Terrell Herdman Obituary

It is with great sadness that we announce the death of Carol Terrell Herdman of Gladstone, Missouri, who passed away on August 16, 2025, at the age of 89, leaving to mourn family and friends. Family and friends are welcome to leave their condolences on this memorial page and share them with the family.

As we bid Carol farewell, let us not mourn the absence of her physical form, but rather celebrate the essence of her spirit that lingers in the spaces between moments. For Carol is not truly gone, but merely transformed, her energy intertwined with the fabric of the universe itself, forever dancing among the stars.

She is survived by: her sisters, Wava Scott (Bobby), Mary Bodenhausen (Keith) and Nancy Assel (James); and her children, Tracy Boyd (Mike), Brian Herdman (Marie) and Brent Herdman (Tina). She is also survived by 9 grandchildren and 8 great-grandchildren, and a closeknit extended family.
