Carla Deshaw, 83, passed away on August 26, 2016 at Lakeveiw Home Care, Moses Lake with her daughters by her side.

She was born October 4, 1932 in Soap Lake to Carl and Luverne Harvill, she grew up and attended school in Ephrata graduating in 1950. Carla had the honor of riding on the float that year as Ephrata Royalty.

She met and married her first husband Allan Eckhart, they had their first daughter Cheryl in 1952 followed by their second daughter Meralee in 1957. In 1965 Carla married her second husband, Frank Deshaw. Carla and Frank enjoyed snowmobiling in the winter and then loading up the 5th wheel trailer to travel to different golf courses where Frank would golf and mom would work on her quilting. Mom LOVED to sew for her family and friends even if it was just doing mending.

Carla is survived by her husband, Frank of 51 years, her daughters, Cheryl (Mike) Ferguson of Moses Lake and Meralee (Mark) Ferguson of Quincy as well as 5 grandkids, Jessica, Lanny, Josey, Drew and Hannah and 11 great-grandkids. She is also survived by one brother, Denny Harvill of Arizona and one sister, Enid Baher of Concrete, WA and several nieces and nephews.

She was preceded in death by her brother Ronald "Pete" Harvill and one grandson.

We would like to thank Penny Weber and her staff at Lakeview Home Care for the outstanding care and love that they all gave our mom.
