Carolyn Lipscomb Obituary

Carolyn Louise Lipscomb, 78, of Burlington, Kentucky, passed away peacefully on Monday, May 5, 2025. She was born in Covington, Kentucky on May 30, 1946, to Louis E. and Margaret Stein (nee Waechter).

Carolyn was a beloved wife, mother, grandmother, and friend, leaving behind her cherished husband, William Lipscomb. She is survived by her loving children Lisa Combs, William Lipscomb, Chris Beaver, Anna Lipscomb, Carrie Courtney, and James Lipscomb, along with her dear brother Kenneth Stein. Carolyn's legacy continues through her grandchildren—Kayla, Faith, Ethan, Summer, Skye, Dylan, Thomas, Charlie, Libby, Anna, Michael, Sam, Tony, Talon, Carissa and Theresa—as well as her great-grandchildren—Cherokee, Raven, Ellie, Charlotte, Kashdyn and Renlee. Each of them will carry forward the warmth of her spirit.

Though Carolyn faced the sorrow of losing her father, mother, sons Thomas and Kevin, sister Mary Bosse, and brother John Stein, she remained a beacon of love and strength for her family. She held her closest loved ones dear and took tremendous joy in spending time with them, especially her grandchildren and great-grandchildren.
