Born in Syracuse, NY, to the late Frederick K. Schug II and Betty Ann Schug, Carol attended St. Brigid Catholic School in Syracuse, Camillus Elementary School, and West Genesee Junior and Senior High Schools in Camillus. She received her BA in History from SUNY Potsdam, where she was a member of the Alpha Delta Kappa sorority, and pursued her post-graduate work and student teaching at Potsdam and the University of Maine.
Carol worked for many years as an advertising executive for The Western Union Company and, later, focused on raising her two children before returning to a career in education. For the last 18 years, she served as the secretary for the English and Science Departments at Newtown High School. In addition to her work, Carol enjoyed reading, writing, spending time with her children, organizing and laminating everything around her, providing good counsel to good friends, and enjoying quality time with her cat. Her curiosity and her love of learning lasted throughout her life.
Admired and adored, she will be missed dearly by all those who experienced the radiating warmth of her kindness, gentleness, patience, and generosity. Her sense of commitment and her subtle humor left an indelible impression upon those who knew and loved her.
Carol was predeceased by her sister, Diana Katherine Schug, her brother, Frederick K. Schug III, her Cavalier King Charles Spaniel, Maxine, and her cat, Lily.
She is survived by her husband, Anthony, her son, Christian, and her daughter, Lauren. She is also survived by her sister, Sharon (Schug) Monfort, and her cat, Scout.
A Mass of Christian Burial will be celebrated at 11 a.m. on Saturday, September 21, 2024, at St. Pius X Church in Fairfield. A reception celebrating her life will follow the ceremony.
