Carrie married her high school sweetheart, Phillip Pfeil, on October 15, 1976, at the age of 18. She attended Thomas Jefferson High School in Dallas, Texas. She was a longtime resident of Dallas and Celina. Most recently, she made her home in Avery, Texas, where she enjoyed watching hummingbirds, raising chickens, and the deer that lived in her backyard forest.
