Carol Ann Daries (86) of Ellington, CT and resident of Woodlake of Tolland, entered into eternal life on Wednesday, August 18, 2021.
Carol was born on February 27, 1935 to Eugene and Lillian (McGarvey) Pearson in Portland, ME.
Carol received a Catholic education in Portland, and was awarded a diploma from Sacred Heart School on June 12, 1949.
Carol also played softball and tennis while attending school in Portland.
Her father, who was in the service, was a huge Jazz enthusiast/columnist and while on assignment in Newport, RI, the family attended the Jazz Festival where Carol met many of the early jazz figures as they visited in her home.
Carol married Harold (Hap) Daries in January 1960 and the good years of family began.
When the family had grown to five children, old enough to be left in her husband's hands, Carol worked evenings at CBT shift proofing checks.
Carol later went to work at the Aircraft Credit Union.
Sadly three of Carol's children passed before her.
Kelly was lost to brain cancer at the age of 15 (1977); Eugene (Happy) to an auto accident at 28 (1989); and Bill to cancer at 57(2013).
Following a stroke in May, 2015 Carol was confined to a wheel chair/bed at Woodlake at Tolland, where she was able to be mostly happy.
In addition to her husband Harold, Carol is survived by two of her five children Susan Riley and her partner Thomas Perrone of Ellington, and Kathleen Levesque and her husband Philip of Enfield.
She is also survived by her beloved grandchildren and many great grandchildren.
She is also survived by her two daughters in law, Michele Daries of Vernon, and Sandra Daries of Lancaster, MA.
Services for Carol were held at Saint Mary's Roman Catholic Church in East Hartford, followed by a graveside ceremony at Hillside Cemetery.
Benjamin J Callahan Funeral Home in East Hartford handled the arrangements.
