Carrie Ann Bricker-Hauger
(November 16, 1975 – January 24, 2010)

Carrie Ann Bricker-Hauger, born on November 16, 1975 lost her life in a two car accident on Sunday, January 24, 2010.

Carrie married Joey Hauger in 1999, and together they were blessed with four gifts from God, Cora 9, Inanna 6, Mira 5, and little brother Bruyn 7 months.

Carrie lived life to the fullest as a terrific mom, wonderful wife and best friend to Joey, beloved daughter, and great role model and friend to her 5 younger sisters. She will also be missed by her elementary students and staff at Central Lake Schools and the many girls she coached at Boyne City Public Schools. She will be there in spirit at gymnastics, swim school, soccer, football and snowmobile races.

Carrie is survived by her best friends and sisters Katie, Molly, Emily, Samantha and Anna. She is also survived by her loving parents Robin and Dave Bricker, Joey’s parents Pat and Joseph Hauger of Levering and his great grandparent Rosemary Graubner of Vassar, and grandparents Nancy and Jerry Adams and Darlene and Don Persons of Boyne City. Carrie was surrounded and loved by many aunts, uncles, cousins, nieces and nephew.

Carrie loved her husband, Joey and her kids, Cora, Inanna, Mira and Bruyn. She leaves a huge void in the hearts of everyone. She left way too soon, but will forever be in our hearts and prayers. Carrie Ann will forever walk the most fertile fields of our minds.
