Carol Vizek Obituary

Published by Legacy on Aug. 5, 2025.
Carol Elsie Vizek, age 90, formerly of La Grange; beloved wife of the late Joseph E.; loving mother of Viktoria; Vynette (John) Belluomini; Joel (Fran) and Josh Vizek; proud grandmother of Sally (Simon) Schmidt; Lisa, Ashley, Ryan, Tyler and Jacob Vizek; and Johnny Belluomini; great-grandmother of Scarlett Schmidt; dear sister of the late Emil "Rick" (Sally) Holada and aunt of Jessica; and friend of many.
Carol, mother of four and devoted wife for 66 years, was a lifelong artist and teacher.
She was a traveler, painter, potter, avid reader, and community member who truly cared about others. Throughout her life she actively supported the humanities and the protection of the environment for future generations.
The passion she expressed for her many interests has been an inspiration to family, friends and acquaintances. Carol, a free-spirited woman who made a lasting impression, touched many hearts and added beauty to the world.
Michigan, a place that supplied Carol with countless treasured memories since childhood, occupied a special place in her heart. It created the perfect environment for shared feelings, interests and experiences with those she cherished during her life.
A future celebration of life is planned for a later date. Donations to Alliance for the Great Lakes (https://greatlakes.org/) in Carol's memory would be greatly appreciated.
