Carol Ziegler

Carol Ziegler passed away on March 17, 2023. She was born in Mobile, Alabama on September 13, 1950 and grew up in Olney, Maryland, the daughter of the late Lillian Koch Ziegler and John Bosley Ziegler, both medical doctors.



Carol attended Mount Vernon Seminary and Mount Vernon College and became an illustrator for the FDA and co-owner of Highland House Antiques in Olney. She had a big heart and never met an animal she didn't fall in love with. In addition to a menagerie of dogs and cats over the years, she rescued and raised two wild birds: a talking Starling named Jesse and a Crow named Jazzie.



Carol was predeceased by her parents and two brothers, James and William. She is survived by her brother Kurt, sisters-in-law, Shurleen and Carolyn, and nieces Adrienne, Valerie, and Jaclyn ... and her beloved Jazzie.



A private service will be held at Mt. Olivet Cemetery, in Hanover, Pennsylvania, where her parents are buried.
