Carreen met her soon to be husband, Scott Savoie, at Cal Lu and they were married on April 14, 1984, going on to have 3 children, John, Landon, and Jacob Savoie.

After retiring, Carreen spent her time RVing, traveling, sewing, crafting, wine tasting, cooking, gardening, and being a proud grandmother.

Carreen was predeceased by her parents, Garrett and Chalotte Dittmar, and her brother, Chris Dittmar. She is survived by her husband, Scott, her sons and their wives, John and Dana Savoie, Landon and Maribeth Savoie, and Jacob Savoie. Carreen had two grandchildren as well, Leo and Annabelle Savoie.
