Carol Argus (née Thomack) passed away peacefully on January 31, 2025, at the age of 91. Born in Milwaukee, WI, to Louis and Elsie Thomack (née Osterloth), Carol had a deep love for gardening and all types of plants. She was a talented artist and a proud member of the Art League of Waukesha, finding joy in painting-especially on rocks. Her passion for creativity extended to collecting art supplies, always eager to explore new artistic endeavors.
Carol cherished life and the time spent with her family and friends. She is survived by her children, Sandy Manning, Deb (Arthur) Bailey-Murray, Dan (Linda) Argus, and Pam (Jeff) Schweitzer, along with 10 grandchildren and one great-grandchild. She was preceded in death by her loving husband Roland, parents Louis and Elsie, her sister Sharon Sulek, and her son-in-law Steve Manning.
The visitation for Carol is going to be held on Saturday April 12, 2025 from 10:00 a.m. until the start of services at 11:30 a.m. at St. Mark's Evangelical Lutheran Church 424 Hyde Park Ave, Waukesha, WI 53188.
Carol's kindness, creativity, and love for life will be dearly missed by all who knew her.

Carol was such a lovely woman and I am grateful I was able to spend so much time with her as the activities coordinator at the Heights, having daily chats as she´d pass by my office on the way back from meals. She always had a great story to tell, usually ending in laughter! She was so generous, always willing to share her art supplies when we were doing projects. I´ll always remember her compassion and how she´d ask about my mother who is sick. She was so proud of her children and grandchildren, and will be deeply missed and fondly remembered.
