Obituary

Carma Jean St. Marks, 76, passed away due to natural causes at her Portland, Oregon, residence on Wednesday, September 25, 2024.  Wake services will begin at 3:00 p.m. on Friday, September 27, 2024, with a Rosary being said at 7:00 p.m., all at St. Mary's Catholic Church.  Funeral Mass and traditional Native American services will be held at 10:00 a.m. on Saturday, September 28, 2024, also at St. Mary's.  Burial will follow in the St. Marks Family Cemetery.  Holland & Bonine Funeral Home has been entrusted with arrangements.

Carma was born on September 24, 1948, in Harlem, Montana, to Peter and Alice (Gardipee) St. Marks.  She was raised in Rocky Boy and Los Angeles, California, attending school there.  After her school years, Carma worked several jobs, finally becoming one of the first ICWA social workers.  She absolutely loved that position.

Carma was a gentle woman who enjoyed spending time with her family and adored her grandchildren.  She was a true lady who always looked her best and loved her high heels.  She reveled in joking with her family and friends.

She was preceded in death by her parents Peter St. Marks and Alice Morsette-Gardipee; sons, Michael, Wesley, and Blue; grandson, Drew; sisters, Dixie, Dorothy, Allison; and brothers, John, Daryl, and Whip.

Carma is survived by her children, Edward "Anthony" (Lori), Athena "Chica", Kiara (Amador), and Calvin "CJ"; grandchildren, Jessica, Elora, Chamene, Avery, Chavez, Sirena, Esteban, Rowen, Isabella, Brandon, Blue, Maricia, Maricella, Amador, Jacob, Drew, Lexus, Damion, Daniel, *Kali, *Kyla, and *James; siblings, Sonny Boy, Russel, Kenny, Billy, Leon, Cheryl, and Judi; and numerous nieces, nephews, cousins, and other extended family and friends.
