She was preceded in death by her parents, Goldman and Bertha (Scott) Carroll; one son, Johnny Carroll Huck (Dec. 29, 2016); and a brother, Jack Carroll.

Funeral services were conducted Monday, October 23, 2017 at St. Eustachius Catholic Church in Portageville with Father Daniel Robles officiating. Interment was in Portageville Cemetery.
