Carol was a delight to all who knew her and her husband (of sixty-two years) Jim, in their Carmel community. Although she suffered great sadness at the loss of her beloved twin daughters, Sharon in 2020, followed by Karen in 2022, her faith and family were a continuing joy and source of strength to her.
Their eldest son David and his wife Cynthia blessed them with two grandchildren, Nathan and Alexis. Their son Jeffrey and his wife, Ann, blessed them with three grandchildren, Andrew, Taylor, and Sarah. Michael and his wife Laura gave them Matthew, Kaitlin, and Logan.
Carol was born in Bluffton, Indiana to Victor and Inez Taylor on March 3, 1939. She went to school at Petroleum High School. She married James Albrecht on September 9, 1961 in Fort Wayne, Indiana. She graduated from Purdue University with a degree in Home Economics. In addition to raising five children, she taught Kids Can Sew in her home and taught classes at JoAnn Fabrics.
Carol is survived by her spouse Dr. James Albrecht, sons David Albrecht, Jeffrey Albrecht and Michael Albrecht, brother James Taylor and 8 grandchildren.
