Carole Seay Obituary
August 28, 1942 - June 10, 2024
Carole Roberson Seay, 81, of Spotsylvania County, Virginia passed away Monday, June 10, 2024, at her home surrounded by her family.
She was born August 28, 1942, in Fredericksburg, Virginia and raised in Spotsylvania, Virginia and Green Cove Springs, Florida, the daughter of the late Lewis T. Roberson, Sr. and Ann Cooper.
In addition to her parents, she was preceded in death by her husband of 34 years, Wilson Seay; her stepfather, Wilson Cooper; her brother, Melvin Roberson; her sister, Marion Moody (Lowell Moody, Sr.); and her son-in-law, Wayne Sorrell.
Carole is survived by her daughter, Kelly Seay Ripley (Billy); her son, Buck Seay (Melody); her grandchildren, Wilson, Thomas and Austen Seay and Michele Sorrell-Healy (Chris) all of Spotsylvania, Virginia; and her brother, Lewis T. Roberson, Jr. (Shirley) of Wesley Chapel, Florida.
She was a former employee of GNH Pants Factory and a paper carrier for The Free-Lance Star prior to opening her own business.
She owned and operated Massaponax Bookkeeping & Tax Service, Inc. and Wilson Seay Trucking, Inc. for 37+ years. She has been a staple as a tax preparer and bookkeeper in the Spotsylvania community. She took great pride in her work, home, yard and family.
Special thanks to her care givers, Gail Horner and Romaine Callahan. We would also like to thank the staff at Nayar Health care for all their help.

I´m so sorry to hear about Carole. I enjoyed all the time spent with her handling my taxes. She was a good friend and our conversations covered so many things. I have missed seeing her in the past few years and want to send condolences to all the family especially Kelly.
