Carol Ferringer Obituary

Carol E. Ferringer

W. Bloomfield - October 19, 1940-April 4, 2019

Beloved, Mother, Grandmother, Sister, & Aunt, Carol, 78, gracefully & peacefully passed away on April 4, 2019, with her daughter by her side and surrounded by her family.

Carol, a longtime resident of West Bloomfield, was born and raised in Ionia, the daughter of Frank & Martha Good. She was a graduate of Bloomfield High School- Class of 1958. Carol worked as an administrative professional in the food service industry for over 20+ years at the Clarence H. Houk Company until it was bought out by another company. Subsequently, Carol moved to San Antonio, TX to live with her daughter, Melissa, who was just beginning law school. Carol lived in Texas with Melissa during her first two years of law school. Then in 2001, Carol moved back to West Bloomfield & began working, as an administrative professional, at LiDestri Foods, where she worked for 11 years before she retired. Carol was a hard worker, who hardly ever missed a day of work, and you could always count on her to get the job done! Carol loved her family, especially her daughter, Melissa, who was the apple of her eye, and her grandson, Dylan, who she treasured from the day he was born. Those that knew Carol best would say that Melissa & Dylan were her greatest gifts in life. Carol always enjoyed telling friends and family members about Melissa & Dylan and how proud she was of them & their accomplishments; like Melissa being a lawyer, who works for the Attorney General's Office in Texas. On cold NY days, you would often see Carol wearing one of her sweatshirts with the Texas Attorney General logo. Carol almost never missed spending Melissa's birthday with her and flew to Texas regularly to do so. Carol was a big hockey fan & loved sharing that interest with her grandson, Dylan, who is a HUGE hockey fan. You could always find Carol reading books, yes actual hardcover/paperback books, but she also gave into modern technology & enjoyed reading books on her Kindle too!

Carol is preceded in death by her parents, Frank & Martha Good, and her brother, David Good, and is survived by her daughter, Melissa Ferringer, grandson, Dylan Eserini-Ferringer, sister, Edith Driscoll, several nieces & nephews, and will always remain in the hearts of those who knew and loved her. In this difficult time of loss, Carol would not want anyone to be sad, but rather to remember the good times you had with her and to share your memories with one another. A Funeral Service to celebrate Carol's life will be held at the West Bloomfield Congregational Church, 9035 Route 5, West Bloomfield, NY 14585 on Saturday, April 27, 2019, at 10AM.

I have a picture from the 1930s of Martha joking around with a large slice of watermelon. Carol, like her mother, Martha, and her sister, Edith, have always sent out a joyful aura around them and, with a natural ease, they could make anyone happy to be in their company. The men, with their fun loving spirit, always did a good job of keeping up with the ladies. It's indeed the highest compliment to say that Carol reminded me of her mother's goodness.

I am so sorry for your loss.

Carol had the greatest laugh & always made me laugh. She was so funny. She kept me company many times at our work picnics at the playground with my son. That was always our hangout every year as my son did not want to be around the crowd. She never left me there alone, she always enjoyed the company of my son and all the other little kids. They made her laugh.

My sympathies & prayers to all of her family.
