Carolyn Tussing Obituary

Circleville Carolyn S. Tussing left for her heavenly home on Friday, October 3, 2025, at Logan Elm Health Care. Carolyn was the second daughter of the late Orville and Marcella (Mondhank) Cofman. She was born on April 10, 1941, in Canal Winchester, Ohio. Besides her parents, she was preceded in death by a sister, Lois Elliott and brother Larry Cofman.

Carolyn is survived by her loving husband of 61 years, Paul Tussing; son Mark (Heather) Tussing of Bradenton, FL, step daughters, Paula (Bryce) Leachman of Naples, FL and Tammie (Bill) Johnson of West Lake, OH; special twin nephews raised as sons, Rodney Campbell of Mt. Sterling, OH and Roger Campbell of Latrobe, PA; along with several grandchildren and great grandchildren.

Carolyn was a devoted housewife and after the children were teenagers then she went back to ABLE classes to obtain her GED. Being so impressed with the process, she accepted a job with ABLE in Pickaway County helping other adults to get there GED's, a job she loved.
