Carol Baab

Carol C. (Williams) Baab, 83, of Pocono Lake, PA passed away on August 11, 2025, shortly after celebrating her 62nd wedding anniversary to her devoted and loving husband John. Born 1942 in Warrior Run, PA, she was the beloved daughter of Owen Williams & Helen (Skwarlo) Williams. Carol attended high school in Bound Brook, NJ and then St. Peter's Nursing School. She was employed for many years as an R.N. at St. Peter's Hospital in New Brunswick, NJ until her retirement.

Carol & John enjoyed fishing & travel. They had many adventures on their boat "C-Breeze" both in NJ and on trips as far as Florida. They enjoyed several vacations to Chincoteague, VA with their kids and grandkids. After they retired, they moved from NJ to a wooded paradise in Pocono Lake, PA where they enjoyed the various birds and wildlife. Carol was always excited to call her kids when a bear came to visit.

After the novelty of PA winters wore off, they often made trips via motorhome and enjoyed extended stays near bodies of water to do some fishing. While at home, Carol enjoyed cooking, baking, needlework and relaxing on the deck. Her favorite, of course, was spending time with family and making way too much food for everyone. She & her sister spoke several times a day, keeping each other posted on all of the family news.

Carol was predeceased by her parents, brother Owen Williams, sister Linda Williams, son-in law Robert Koshinsky and daughter-in law Maureen Baab.

She is survived by her loving husband John, their dog Murphy and cat Sadie.

She also leaves behind daughter Donna Koshinsky & her partner Dave Searfoss, son John Baab & his partner Martha Gornal, son Jeff Baab & wife Kelly (who she probably loved more than Jeff), grandchildren Carrie Cavanna & fiancée Derrick DeLoatch, Erica Baab, Zachary Koshinski & fiancée Mackenzie Horwath, Megan Baab and great grandsons Steven & Mason. In addition, she will be greatly missed by her sister Dorothy Bedner, as well as her numerous, beloved nieces & nephews.

A Mass of Christian burial will take place at 12 noon on Saturday, August 16, 2025 in St. Maximilian Kolbe Parish, 5112 Pocono Crest Rd O, Pocono Pines, PA 18350 where the family will receive friends and relatives from 11:00A.M. until the time of mass.

In lieu of flowers, Carol requested that memorial donations are made in her memory to St. Jude Children's Research Hospital or your local animal rescue organization.
