Carleen Marie Myers was born to Melvin and Edith (Schmidt) Myers on January 7, 1962, in Van Nuys, CA. Her family moved from North Dakota to Minneapolis, calling Circle Pines home in 1965. She attended Centennial Elementary. In 1975, they moved to Sebeka, where she graduated with the class of 1980. Carleen went on to attend school to become a nurses aid. She worked as a nurses aid and a deli manager. She made her career at Blue Cross Blue Shield, receiving multiple promotions. Unfortunately, during this time she was in a terrible auto accident, causing her to leave the work she loved. She spent many years in recovery through the Sports Therapy Center by the Twin Cities. After 10 years, she bought a house along County Road 4, just outside of Wadena. Carleen was united in marriage with David Lawrence Senn on July 18, 1998, at the Immanuel Lutheran Church in Wadena by Pastor Marilyn Breckenridge. Through all their tribulations their love grew until they were more than husband and wife, they were a single unit. She was devoted to learning more about God and was an active member at Immanuel Lutheran Church. She enjoyed beading jewelry, fishing, and her dog Keisha. She found relaxation in interior decorating and organization. Carleen loved enjoying the sights and smells of her many lilac brushes. She was kind, thoughtful and loved to laugh. Her family and friends will miss her beautiful caring smile. Carleen was preceded in death by her parents Melvin and Edith and brother, Robert.
