Carol (Permatteo) Bowden

  Of Revere.  Passed away unexpectedly at the age of 70. Beloved daughter of the late Silvio Permatteo and Mary (DeVelis). She is the dear niece of Lee Anderson and her husband Larry of Woburn, and Jo DeVelis and her late husband Bernard of Boxford. She is also the adored godmother of Garrett Greene of Reading. Carol is also survived by many loving cousins and dear friends. She was predeceased by her Aunt Vickie Permatteo Carli and Uncle Ray Permatteo.

  Carol was a lifelong resident of Revere. She graduated from Revere High School in 1970. She attended the Katharine Gibbs School and graduated in 1972. Early in her career she worked as a medical secretary, but the majority of her working career was as an Office Manager in car dealerships, most recently being employed by North Shore Nissan in Danvers, MA. Carol was masterful at her work as an office manager, keeping everything running smoothly in her department. She was greatly appreciated by those who worked with her and for whom she worked.

   Carol was a wonderful daughter to her parents, whom she cared for many years. She was a person who had a great sense of humor. She loved fashion and shopping trips and dinners with her friends, and gatherings with her family. Two of her all-time favorite things were bling and shoes, and those who knew her know she had lots of both. Carol will truly be missed by all who knew her.
