Obituary for CARROLL


Published in the Albuquerque Journal on Friday June 01, 2012

CATHY LYNN December 19, 1949-May 29, 2012 In loving memory of "Cat" Carroll, friend and shepherd to all who crossed her path. Cathy is now with her Lord and Savior, taken by metastatic melanoma and brain tumors. Cat was born in Hempstead, NY. When she moved here to Albuquerque she fell in love with the New Mexico landscapes and rocks, vowing never to leave. Her testimony about the work of Christ her Savior reached far and wide. She changed the outlook of all who came in contact with her as she shared her amazement of all the natural wonders this world holds. She never shied from a good discussion about archaeology, astronomy, paleontology, history and the Scriptures. She was a marvelously intelligent woman who felt blessed with the adventurous experiences she was afforded in life. Cathy was preceded in death by her loving mother and father, Frank and Elsie Carroll. She is survived by her brother, Frank Carroll, Jr. and one aunt, Mary Bernhardt. Her special family includes her caretakers, Bob and Faye Valdiviez; and friends Sarah Marie Franklin, Chris and Jane Tegard, Joseph Baglio, German Benitez, Ray and Nancy Mechenbier, Carol Hammans, Daisy Williams, Mike and Winnie Wright of Omaha, Melissa Rowlett of Orlando,Fl., and Marcie Wynn of Casselberry, Fl. A Memorial Service will be held at Foothills Church, Saturday, June 2, at 1:00pm. In lieu of flowers, Cathy would have wanted your gift of love to go to the Foothills Church benevolence fund.
