Carol Wheeler Obituary
Publish in a newspaper
Carol grew up in East Hartford and then moved to Hebron in 1970. She was a hairdresser for many years, loved gardening and flowers, her dogs and cats, and loved all sports, especially NASCAR.
She leaves behind her husband Edward, as well as many nieces and nephews. She was predeceased by her brother Harry J. Overend and sister Alice Barone. Special thanks to her nephew Daniel Barone and his girlfriend Manon Gagnon for all the loving care and support they provided to Carol.
John F. Tierney Funeral Home has care of the arrangements. A private burial will be held at a later date at the convenience of the family. In lieu of flowers, memorial donations in Carols name may be made to Fidelco Guide Dog Organization at www.fidelco.org.
