In Memory Of

Chloe Cramer, Age 74, of Butte

August 16, 1948 – August 14, 2023

Chloe Belle Cramer, age 74, passed away on August 14, 2023, two days short of her 75th birthday. Chloe was born August 15, 1948, in Colville, WA, to Jack Raymond Collins and Norma Jane Taylor Collins. As  child, Chloe, her mother and her sister, Crystal, relocated to Butte, Montana. Here the family grew with Chole and Crystal’s stepfather, Peter James Garvey, and sister, Cathy.

From the beginning, Chloe embraced life as “one great adventure.” Her interests and activities  were many and included raising two sons, clowning as “Clozo” the clown, cooking, painting, sewing, playing in a fiddle group, serving on a murder mystery team, traveling , and visiting family and friends.

Chloe is preceded in death by her husband, Jerry Cramer of Akron, Ohio. She and Jerry enjoyed their life to the fullest, spending time in Ohio and Florida.

Left behind to cherish Chloe’s loving memory are sons, Daniel (Stephanie) Carson, of WA, and Robert Carson, of CA; sisters, Crystal (Carl) Rutan, of Butte, MT, and Cathleen Hoffman, of Columbia Falls, MT; and favored aunt, Bernice Gilmore, of WA. Also, too numerous to mention are stepchildren, grandchildren, great grandchildren, nieces, nephews, cousins, and friends.

Chloe’s family wishes to express sincere gratitude and appreciation to all the caregivers at Beehive Homes and Senior Solutions Hospice who cared for Chloe in her final days.

Per Chloe’s wishes, cremation has taken place. A celebration of life and interment of ashes will be held at a later date and will be announced when arrangements are finalized. Memorials in honor of Chloe may be made to The Grace Fund Foundation, 1554 Harrison Ave Ste C, Butte, MT 59701, or to a foundation of the donor’s choice.

    We had the pleasure of meeting Chloe when she moved in next door to my mom at The Springs Assisted Living. She and my mom became fast friends, and shared a desire for adventure. Chloe was a dear sweet person. She always had a sparkle in her eye! It was a pleasure to know her. She brought sunshine to my mom’s life while she was at The Springs. I’m thankful for meeting Chloe.
    I am sorry for Chloe’s family, for their loss.
