Carrie Ann Stiles has completed her purpose here on earth. She proved to the world who she was, what she could do, and how she would do it. She would express herself HER way and would love those unconditionally. She was friends with most and for those she wasn't, you had to WATCH OUT! Carrie lived her life to the fullest and had the most infectious smile. Carrie was born November 20, 1961 in Oklahoma to Clarence Edwin and Betty Jean Stiles. Carrie lived her life vicariously with being afforded many opportunities. She spent her longest years working with Open Avenues as well as Arkansas Support Network. Through these opportunities she became friends with most and formed several lifelong relationships. Carrie loved her coloring, reading, taking care of all her "Babies" and her soft fur animals. She also loved going out to eat as well as the movies. Carrie was also usually the first one at any party and one of the last ones to close it down. Carrie is survived by numerous family members, friends, and loved ones. She was a daughter, sister, aunt, cousin, friend, companion, and advocate. She will truly be missed by all whose paths she crossed. Carrie is finally reunited with her Momma as well as other family members and friends. She is continuing on, in her new life, laughing, joking, eating, loving, and just being Carrie. We will remember her smile, her warmth, her energy, her love for life, family and friends. She worked very hard all her life, up until the very end. She made a difference in the lives of many. We invite you to join us and celebrate together her life. Life Celebration will take place on Monday, November 20, 2017 at 1 p.m., at Beard's Funeral Chapel, 855 S. Happy Hollow Rd., in Fayetteville. We also ask in lieu of Flowers, that you please bring a new Doll or Stuffed Animal. Carrie grew up loving her "babies" which were her dolls and animals. So in Honor of Carrie we will be donating them to the Children's Safety Center as well as the Children's Shelter. Condolences at www.beardsfuneralchapel.com.
