Carol Sue Nekvasil, 74, of Three Oaks died peacefully Monday, September 5, 2022 in the comfort of her family’s presence.
Her life began April 6, 1948 in Anderson, Indiana, the second child born to William and Barbara Martens.
Carol cherished her family, especially her grandkids and great grandkids. She was big into crafting and sewing. She had a passion for gardening. She was meticulous about her flowers and plants. She loved music and dancing.
Carol absolutely loved all of the holidays and decorated every room of her house for the upcoming holiday. She was an amazing cook but her family will miss the many recipes, meals, and desserts she made catered to the holidays she loved so much. She was a single mother who took pride in how she dressed and carried herself. She proudly earned her degree in accounting from Western Michigan later in life, which was quite an accomplishment for her.
Carol was a determined woman with a heart of gold.
Carol will be greatly missed by family and friends. She is survived by her five daughters, Nancy (the late Cary) Harrington of Three Oaks, Peggy Holland of Niles, Diana (Thomas) Fournier of New Buffalo, Kelly (William) Price of Buchanan, Chalee Lewis of Galien; seventeen grandchildren; ten great grandchildren; one sister, Marilyn Martens of Niles; and a host of nieces, nephews, cousins, and friends.
She was preceded in death by her parents; her sister, Nancy Martens; her brother, William “Bobby” Martens; her son-in-law, Cary Harrington; her grandson, Dayne Fournier
