Carol Lynn Cole-Bom, 86, of Evansville, Indiana, passed away on Friday, June 23, 2023, at Heart to Heart Hospice. She was born June 24, 1936, in Hollywood, California to the late Ralph Eagleton and Viola La-Grace (Whited) Davis and was the youngest of three girls.
Carol moved to Posey County in 1970 with her husband, Aaron and their three children. She loved fashion and worked retail all of her life working her way up to a Regional Manager for Catherines. Carol was very generous and had a heart for the less fortunate. Over this last winter she knitted and donated over 100 stocking hats for the homeless. Carol's Christian faith brought her much comfort and was evident in the way she lived her life. She was always extremely upbeat and positive and it was natural for her to find the good in everyone and in every situation. Carol was a 28 year breast cancer survivor... she loved life living it her way!
Carol is survived by her three children, Keith (Jennifer) Wilson, Laura Barnhart-Lackey, and Judy (Terry) Boehman; seven grandchildren, Wade (Shabnam) Barnhart, Matt (Lori) Boehman, A.D. (Tracy) Boehman, Laci Barnhart (Mike), Jake (Carrie) Boehman, Kali (Mike) Conkling, Lauren Murray (Michael); 21 great grandchildren; sisters, Paule Wheeler, Helen Berger; and Carol was blessed to have several special friends, Joanie, Sharon, Wanda, and Jayne.
She is preceded in death by her husband, Aaron Wilson; sons in law, Don Barnhart, Loryl Lackey;
