Carole Ann FRIEL

FRIEL Carole Ann (nee Avery) Carole Ann Friel's beautiful life and ascension into heaven was celebrated with her husband, Charlie; her 6 children; their spouses and her grandchildren when they all gathered together to be by her side, as they always were. They were singing, praying, handholding and loving her, as Carole lay peacefully, looking as beautiful and stylish as she always did. Being with her in these final hours is something that they will always remember and cherish forever. Carole Ann Friel (nee Avery) of Wynnewood, PA, Ocean City, NJ and Jupiter, FL, 82, passed away on June 8, 2023, surrounded by her loving husband of 56 years, Charles ("Charlie") P., her 6 adoring children and their spouses, Caroline (Bruce)Telep, Kristin (David) Stewart, Lauren, Lynne (Dr. Paul) Brown, Charlie (Devon) and Sara (Kevin) Olender; and her amazing 18 grandchildren, who called her "Mom Mom", David, Patrick, Brian, Michael, Paul, Jack, Avery, Luke, Mark, Charlie, Sean, Daniel, Sadie, Caroline, Brooke, Michael, Kevin and Hadley. Carole was also the dear sister of the late Sally (Augie) Campiglia, Patricia Ann (the late Gary) Keuther, the late George (the late Anne) Avery, and Georgianna (the late James) Reynolds, and the sister-in-law of the late Eileen, Jack (the late Joan), Bob, and Sally (the late James Ewing and Dr. Frank) Liu. Carole was born in Glenolden, PA on September 14, 1940, to George and Anne Avery, and later moved to Narberth, PA. After graduating from Holy Child Academy and Harcum College, she went on to work for the DuPont Company, something she was always very proud of. Carole later met her love of her life, Charlie, in Narberth, and they were married on October 15, 1966, at Saint Margaret Church. Carole was the best friend to each of her children, talking several times a day on the phone, traveling to all of their games no matter where they were, shopping together at her favorite stores, getting their hair and nails done together, and going out to dinner with them on the weekends. She also adored each one of her precious eighteen grandchildren. Carole lit up a room when she walked into it with her infectious beauty, style and wit and she naturally drew people to her no matter where she would go. Relatives and friends are invited to her Visitation on Wednesday, June 14 from 9:00 A.M. to 10:15 A.M. and to her Mass of Christian Burial following at 10:30 A.M., both at Saint Margaret Church, 208 N. Narberth Ave, Narberth, PA. The interment will follow at Calvary Cemetery in West Conshohocken, PA. Memorial donations may be made in Carole's name to the Sisters of the Immaculate Heart of Mary at Camilla Hall, Office of Mission Advancement, 230 IHM Drive, Malvern, PA, 19355.
