After serving her community she returned to school and is a graduate of Mid America Nazarene University located in Olathe, Kansas. Carol was a woman of deep faith and boundless compassion. Her Catholic faith was the foundation of her life, guiding her in all she did and inspiring those who knew her. She dedicated many years of service to The Salvation Army, Catholic Charities and the Community Kitchen in Moberly.
Her kindness and generosity touched countless lives. Carol will be remembered for her unwavering devotion to God, her selfless spirit, and the love she shared with her family, friends, and community.
She was preceded in death by her parents, Tandy and Ethel; her sister, Betty Gerlt; and her two children, Don and Mary. Carol is survived by her siblings, Wilma Kennedy and Linda Sue Pittensburger; her daughter, Janice Geyer of Maryville, Missouri; and her son, Wesley C. Cline (Linda) of Independence, Missouri.
