Carolyn Sue Boughman

Carolyn Sue Boughman, age 82, a resident of Portland, passed away on Thursday, December 12, 2024 at Muncie Estates in Muncie, Indiana.

Sue was born March 19, 1942, in Anderson, Indiana, the daughter of Edward “Bud” and Marjorie (White) Cottingham.  She graduated from Portland High School and worked at Createc in Portland for 22 years.  Sue attended New Beginnings Holiness Church in rural Portland.  She married William “Bill” Boughman on February 23, 1962 and he passed away on August 2, 2012.  Bill and Sue celebrated their 50th wedding anniversary in 2012 with a big surprise party.

Sue loved to garden, keep her flower beds pristine, cook, and bake.  Everything had to be made from scratch.  No boxes.  She loved spending time with family more than anything else.  She loved playing cards, board games, and the occasional girl's trip to the Anderson Casino.  Sue's orneriness, smile, and laugh will forever be missed.

Survivors include:

Her son:  Wade Boughman (wife Kerri) – Yorktown, Indiana

2 grandsons:  Eli and Thadd Boughman

Visitation will be held on Wednesday from 3-5 p.m. at Williamson-Spencer and Penrod Funeral Home in Portland.  Funeral services will follow at 5 p.m. on Wednesday at the funeral home.  Pastor Randy Smith will officiate and private burial will be held on Thursday at Green Park Cemetery in Portland.
