Barbara Jean Hay Carlson

Barbara Jean Hay Carlson was born in Salt Lake City on April 6, 1927 to Raymond and Thelma Hay and passed away peacefully on June 16, 2018. She will be greatly missed by her friends and family.

Barbara lived most of her life in the Holladay area where she and husband Joe built their own home and raised a beautiful family.

She is survived by daughter, Charlene Passey (Mark); son, Corey Carlson; daughters-in-law, Cozette Carlson and Tracy Carlson; as well as 14 grandchildren and 33 great-grandchildren.

We are grateful for the caregivers at Canyon Hospice and Holladay Health Care for their kind and compassionate care.
