Carole Riser Obituary
August 9, 1947 - August 24, 2023
Ft. Lauderdale, Florida - Our dear Mother, Carole passed away on August 24th, 2023.
She will forever be remembered, loved and cherished by her many friends, her family and especially her son, Daniel and daughter, Diana and her loving Sisters. She always said her children were her greatest gift and accomplishment yet anyone who knows her knows she was a great gift to anyone fortunate enough to enjoy her friendship and love. Some of Carole's favorite joys were reading, kayaking, living at the beach and especially music, dancing and football! Carole was a life-long Steelers fan and enjoyed many years of watching the games at the Steelers pubs with her Steelers friends.
She was a powerful, successful, intelligent business woman throughout her life until she passed, from owning thriving hair salons to most recently selling luxury intracoastal real estate. She was very proud of the relationships she developed and level of service she provided in her career and left a lasting impression on those who worked with her.
We learned how to be kind, how to love and how to cherish life from her.
She always said, "Put your face to the sun and know you are loved." We promise to do that and look to her in the sunshine until we are with her again.
We will miss her and think of her every day and promise to live our best lives and make her proud.
Our family and friends always tell us, your mother was beautiful inside and out, elegant and stylish and always loved to laugh. She will be missed but we know she is always with us.

I worked under Carole as a Hair Stylist at Hair Trends. Carole I will
remember you always as the one who believed in me and always pushed me
out of my comfort zone to make me grow in the industry.
You always had faith in me and invested your time in me, I will never
forget you for that. Even though you were all business at work you
you were always warm and approachable.
Thank you for all the long meaningful talks early in the morning and after
everyone left the shop.
I remember meeting your children and thinking they will be bright
stars in this world just like their Mom.
I know she's up in the heavens bringing style, smiles and warmth to all.
My deepest condolences to her family and friends.
Sincerely, L. Humes

Carole will live on through memories she made as she crossed paths with friends and family throughout her life.
Her sisters, Aunts and Uncles, many cousins and wonderful friends in Pennsylvania and Florida will all remember her always.

We are so sad and heartbroken over the loss of Carole, our precious sister.
Carole shared with us her love of dancing and how much it meant to her. It brought her such Joy. Also, we will always remember her for her wonderful sense of humor and love of laughter. She kept us all in fits of laughter as she shared her personal stories and funny experiences.
Of course, her loving children, Diana and Danny, always were first place in her heart. Her love was unending for them and through eternity.
She took such joy in living in a place that gave her the opportunity to step down, place her feet in the sand and view her beautiful ocean.
She listened to the ocean rolling in and out as she gently slipped away to her next journey.
We loved her beyond measure and will miss her until we meet again. God Bless you Carole. I know you are dancing with the Angels.
