Carol Andreas, a cherished soul of 90 years, born on July 20, 1934, in Oberlin, LA peacefully entered eternal rest on December 14th, leaving behind a legacy of love and warmth.
In a beautiful union, she married her beloved Bill on June 19, 1955, and together they celebrated an incredible 70 years of marriage, raising two wonderful sons, Ricky and Tim, who were the pride of her life.
Carol dedicated many years of her life to her work at PPG Credit Union, and after retiring, she continued to embrace her passion by working from home as a bookkeeper. Her Sundays were often spent in joyful worship at Apostolic Temple Pentecostal Church, where she found solace and community.
Predeceased by her loving parents, Tom & Lucille Patrick, Carol is now reunited with them. She is lovingly remembered by her husband, Bill Andreas, her children, Ricky (Jamie) Andreas, Walker, LA and Tim (Tammy) Andreas, Lake Charles, LA, her precious grandchildren, Candice, Colin, Blaike & Cody, and her numerous adored great-grandchildren. Carol also leaves behind two brothers, Billy Patrick, Devine, TX and Thomas (Linda) Patrick, Holly Lake Ranch, TX, who held a special place in her heart. A celebration of Carol's remarkable life will be held at her beloved church, Apostolic Temple Pentecostal Church on December 19, 2024 at 1:00pm. Friends and family are invited to gather for visitation starting at 10:00am.
In lieu of flowers, the family kindly asks that donations be made to Apostolic Temple Pentecostal Church, The Local Heart Foundation, or St, Jude's Children's Hospital honoring Carol's generous spirit.
