Caroline Carritt Obituary

Caroline, Carritt

August 5, 1963 - December 6, 2023

Caroline (Lentz) Carritt slipped away quietly after a lengthy illness. Born and raised in Omaha, she enjoyed running track and swimming in high school. After graduation, Caroline began nursing school, fell in love and married Kevin Carritt.

Although she suffered a stroke as a young woman, she raised two sons, ran the household, volunteered and even coached track at her sons' grade school. Caroline and Kevin enjoyed travel and time with family. Caroline had a sharp mind and was a woman of conviction. She never lost an argument to Kevin, but always made him feel like the winner. Despite her health challenges, she lived a strong, productive, and inspirational life.

Caroline is survived by her husband, Kevin; sons, Kyle and Jeff; parents, Freddie and Lois Lentz; sibling, Tim (Charyl); extended family and loving friends. She will be deeply missed.

Memorials to the family for later designation.
