Carolyn Kitzmiller Obituary
Carolyn worked for many years at Allied Paper Mill, alongside her late husband, Barry. Carolyn enjoyed being outdoors and hunting, fishing, and watching the deer from her cabin window. She was also a talented quilter, sewer and baker. Her family was her world, and she would do anything for them. She looked forward to spending time with her beloved grandchildren.
She is survived by her stepson, Brian (Carolyn) Kitzmiller; grandchildren, Andy, Michael, Riley, Shae and Jay; great-grandchildren, Alec, Adam, Carson, Parker, and Cooper; and siblings, Marlene (Edwin) Newington and Kenneth (Carol) Wilder.
Carolyn was preceded in passing by her parents, the love of her life, Barry Kitzmiller, on Sept. 9, 2025, stepdaughter, Shelly Snyder, and brother, Robert Wilder.
Family and friends were invited to a memorial gathering on Friday, Feb. 20, at Adams Funeral Home, 502 W. Michigan Ave., Paw Paw.
