Carol was born on August 23, 1946 in Berkeley, CA to Bill and Jeanne Reinhardt. She graduated from Sierra High School in 1964 and then attended Fresno City College’s clerical program. She married the love of her life William (Bill) Duggins Jr. in 1967 after a whirlwind romance of 3.5 months. After many years, the couple welcomed their daughter Kelli into their home and Carol dedicated her time to raising her until Kelli started school and then Carol went to work for Fresno Unified School District as an instructional aide specializing in resource and special education.
Carol was accomplished at painting but often was modest about her talent. She was a generous and loving individual who loved her family and who was passionate about children everywhere and helping her students and other children in need. She also loved animals especially cats, reading, and going on rides with her husband whether on a snow mobile or the back of Bill’s motorcycle.
A life celebration for Carol will be held Saturday, December 22, 2018 from 3:00 PM to 4:00 PM at Oakmont of Fresno, 5605 N Gates Ave, Fresno, CA 93722. All are welcome to attend and celebrate Carol’s life.
The family would like to thank Saint Agnus Hospice for their excellent care, support and dedication during this difficult time.
