Laura Alice Carley, 82, of Solomons, MD, formerly of Clarksville, MD, passed away on March 31, 2015 at her residence.
Born August 11, 1932 in New York, NY, she was the daughter of the late Olaf M. Andersen and Alice (Gordon) Andersen.
Laura graduated from Andrew Jackson High School in New York, NY. She married Charles M. Carley on July 6, 1954 in Beltsville, MD. Laura was a homemaker and moved to Solomons, MD from Clarksville, MD in April 2012. What Laura enjoyed the most was being around family and friends. Her hobbies included golf, bowling, traveling and reading. She was always ready to try out a new vineyard. After the passing of her husband in 2011, Laura said the move to Asbury-Solomons was the best thing to do. She treasured the many new friendships she made. The day she was called home to be with her beloved husband, a new Andersen, Ande, was born.
Laura is survived by her children, Donna Tizol (Joe) of Prince Frederick, MD and Chris Carley (Peggy) of Eldersburg, MD; grandchildren, Carley Tizol, Laura Rivers, Christopher Carley and Michael Howey; great grandchildren, Norah Carley, Charlie Rivers, Ande Rivers, Ryan Howey and Makayla Howey; and her sister, Jean Frost of Southern Pines, NC.
