Carol Warren, age 82, of Texarkana, Arkansas, passed away peacefully on Thursday, November 12, 2026, in a local nursing home.

Mrs. Warren was born on October 7, 1944, in Little River County. She was a retired Licensed Vocational Nurse who truly loved her career in nursing. To Carol, nursing was never just a job; it was a calling. She had a heart for caring for others and found joy in making a difference in the lives of her patients. Carol also had a creative side and found great joy in working with crafts, creating beautiful pieces through ceramics and sewing. Carol had a special love for animals. They held a special place in her heart, and their unconditional love.

Carol loved traveling and making memories with her family. Some of her most cherished adventures were trips out West, where she enjoyed the dude ranches, exploring new places, and taking in the beautiful scenery. She was also a devoted Arkansas Razorback fan! She never missed an opportunity to join in and call the Hogs.

Carol was also an excellent cook who loved preparing meals and sharing good food with family and friends. The meals she prepared, the memories she made, and the love she shared will be treasured for years to come. She would spend much of her time cooking in a cast iron. Whether she was cooking in her kitchen or preparing a meal over an open campfire, she had a special talent for making everything taste wonderful. She delighted in trying different recipes with her cast iron.

She was preceded in death by her parents, William (Brad) and Willie (Bill) Hinton; her husband, Harold Warran; one daughter, Jay Lynne Stuart; one brother, Billy Joe Hinton; and her sister, Jean Jones.

She is survived by her sister, Margaret Ann Cobb; a special family member, Dana High; her nieces and nephews, Carolan Marr, Mandy Watkins, Ken Cobb, Caren Riley, and Billy Keith Hinton, and Lisa Cobb; thirteen great-nieces and nephews, nine great-great-nieces and nephews, and a host of friends and other relatives.
