Anthony Fabella Carroll, a man of love and friendship, passed away on December 23, 2025, in
Raleigh, North Carolina, at the age of 21. Anthony was born on December 9, 2004, in Roxas City, Capiz, Philippines. Anthony's infectious smile, charisma, and sarcasm were gifts to all who knew him.
He was a proud graduate of Franklin Academy High School in 2023 and furthered his education at Wake Technical Community College, earning an IT certificate that propelled him into a promising career. At the time of his passing, he was a Customer Service Manager at AT&T, having previously honed his work ethic at Taco Bell, Ace Hardware, Sirchie's Shipping Department in Youngsville, and as a chef at Sullivans in Raleigh.
He was an avid gamer, anime enthusiast, and soccer player. His artistic talents shone through in his drawings, and he found joy in cooking and sharing meals with loved ones. Anthony's love for DIY projects was a testament to his creativity, and he also enjoyed reading and writing.
Anthony's legacy is carried on by his devoted parents, Andrew and Juvy Fabella Carroll; his loving sisters, Kristine and Abigail Carroll; his maternal grandmother, Alma Fabella; paternal grandparents, Dan and Clara Lee Carroll; and his fiancée, Taylor Soliz, and many aunts, uncles, cousins, and friends who will miss him dearly. He was predeceased by his maternal grandfather, Jose Fabella.
Described by those who knew him as loving, nonchalant, and thoughtful, his laughter and kindness will be remembered as a light that continues to shine in the hearts of those he touched.
As we bid farewell to Anthony Fabella Carroll, we celebrate a life that, though brief, was lived with an abundance of love and a deep commitment to family and friends.
The family will receive friends on Tuesday, December 30, 2025, from 1-3pm at Bright Funeral Home. A Celebration of Life service will follow in the Bright Funeral Home Chapel at 3pm.
