Pearline V. Carney Obituary (2022

Pearline Virginia Carney, 90, went to her Heavenly home July 24, 2022, to be with her Savior Jesus Christ, with her two daughters by her side at her home. She was born July 22, 1932, in the Ozark Mountains in Bradley Ville, Missouri. As a child, her parents came to the Northwest to work in the fields for the summer and then return to their Missouri heritage. Married and at 17 years old in 1949 with one child, she moved to Idaho to be with her sisters Viola and Mildred. She moved back and forth between Washington and Idaho before settling in Yakima in 1958. Raising six children as a single parent, she provided unconditional love and always put her children first with minimal resources. She was a fantastic cook and always made something with what she had in the cupboard. Visitors to her house never went away hungry, and in her later years she insisted everyone take something home. Everybody knew she cared for them and would do anything to help them. She retired after working first at St. Vincent de Paul and then the Salvation Army in retail for many years, while continually providing clothing and other necessities to family and friends. Her greatest joys were family, camping trips, sewing, gardening, collecting coins and dolls, reading, fishing, cooking, and helping others as the need presented itself. She married Jim Carney in 1987 and they were the best match as husband and wife for each other, continually traveling in their motor home and fishing together until Jims death in 2008. She continued to live independently in her house in Moxee. Preceded in death by her parents, Granville and Lottie Combs (Tharp), two brothers, Roy and Ernest Combs, two sisters, Viola and Dorothy Combs, two half-brothers, Roger and Junior Combs, two half-sisters, Evonn and Teresa, husband, Jim Carney, two sons, Dennis and Jim Floyd, and great-grandson, Maji Harrington. Survived by sister, Mildred Hess, three half-brothers, Garland, Arlie David, and Benny Jo Combs, sons and daughters, Dan (Cathy) Floyd, Bruce (Kat) Floyd, Sandy (Mitch) Young and Cheryl Floyd, 11 grandchildren, 27 great-grandchildren & three great-great-grandchildren. A special thanks to her neighbors, and especially Romero and Minerva Arias, for taking such great care of her, the house and yard. You are amazingly caring people and such a blessing to her and our family.
