Carol Meiselwitz Obituary
Plymouth - Carol J. Meiselwitz, age 87, formerly of Kiel, died peacefully on Saturday morning, May 15, 2021 at Waterford of Plymouth, where she resided for the past 7 years.
Carol was born on July 19, 1933, daughter of the late August and Alvina (Henning) Wriedt. She was a graduate of Kiel High School with the class of 1951. On April 24, 1954, Carol married Walter Meiselwitz at Bethlehem UCC in the Town of Schleswig. He preceded her in death on October 23, 1991.

Carol could be found reading a good book and going for walks on the many nice walkways in Kiel. Getting together with friends and family for visits and cards was something she looked forward to.
