Cari earned her Bachelor’s Degree from Mount Mary University in Milwaukee, where she made many treasured friendships. Cari enjoyed a career in banking as a specialist in Mortgage Underwriting.

Always a voice for the voiceless, Cari was dedicated to Saddlebred Horse Rescues and local TNR (Trap-Neuter-Release) cat rescues. Cari loved living in the country on her horse farm in the Northern Kettle Moraine, and leaves behind in the loving care of her husband Mark her beloved horses Louie and Sophie, and much loved cats Peanut, Rocky, Flash, Stormy, Haley, Cocoa Puff, Tangerine and Tipper. She so enjoyed monthly “Ladies’ Night” at the Hanrahan Stables in Boltonville with Brandi, Mary, Becky, Colleen and all her dearest friends.
