Carolyn R. Folds (Passed on February 2nd, 2026)

Carolyn R. Folds, age 81, of Baden, Pennsylvania, passed away peacefully on February 2nd, 2026 after living many years with lung disease. She spent her life in Aliquippa, Center Township, and Monaca.

Carolyn was an independent free spirit who lived life on her own terms. She was known for her unmistakable sense of style, her bold clothing, eye-catching jewelry, and perfectly done hair always made a statement. Wherever she went, she brought personality and flair.

She found joy in life’s simple pleasures and loved being outdoors at the lake, fishing, enjoying good company, and sipping her coffee. She had a fondness for the casino, bingo, playing cards, crafting, dressing up, and dancing to oldies music. Red convertibles held a special place in her heart, symbolizing her love of freedom and fun. Above all, she cherished the time spent laughing and sharing memories with family and friends.

While her life was filled with challenges, she was a fighter until her last breath and never let those struggles break her spirit or limit the dreams of her children. She carried burdens silently so others would not have to, consistently placing the needs of those she loved above her own. Her strength showed not in what she endured, but in how she ensured her children always felt supported, encouraged, and free to chase the lives they imagined.

Carolyn was preceded in death by her parents, John S. Reid and Frances M. Reid, as well as her former husband and father of her children, Riley B. Folds, Jr.

She is survived by her sister, Shirley Anderson (Joe) of Arizona, her daughter, Johnene Petersen (Jaime) of Idaho, her son, Riley B. Folds III (Alfonso) of California, her beloved granddaughter, Emily Bogard, her special friend, Perry Alexander and a large extended family who will miss her dearly.

Carolyn was a woman of Catholic faith. Interment will take place with her parents at St. John the Baptist Cemeter, 1270 Chapel Road, Monaca.

A Celebration of Life will be held in the spring of 2026, with details to be shared at a later time. Arrangements have been entrusted to Simpson Funeral and Cremation Services, 1119 Washington Avenue, Monaca.

In lieu of flowers, donations may be made in Carolyn’s memory to BreathePA, www.breathepa.org/donate.

A special thanks to the staff and caregivers at Concordia Villa St. Joseph, especially her aide Brittany, as well as her pulmonologist Dr. Benjamin Laracuente.
