Carol was born to a loving family, the daughter of Ross Denti and Jerline Camp, in Kansas City, Missouri, on April 21, 1948, and grew up in Overland Park, Kansas.

Carol had a one-of-a-kind spirit that everyone would come to know and love about her. She was best known for loving her grandchildren beyond words! Grandma Carol’s determination and ability to inspire those around her was unforgettable. 

Carol was thoughtful, proud of her family, and unapologetically herself. She was fun-loving and encouraging. She was a loyal follower of Jesus and a friend who always stood up for her beliefs. 

Carol left this world behind, and her passing leaves an emptiness in the hearts of her family. They will remember her as a beautiful woman, mother, and grandmother who touched countless lives during her many years. We can only hope that Heaven has a peephole so that Grandma Carol can see everyone continue on their earthly missions.

She was preceded in death by her parents, Jerline Frank and Ross Denti; brothers, Michael Denti, Thomas Frank, and Robin Frank; and granddaughter, Alys Viola Goodman.

She is survived by her brother, Carl Denti, of Mesa, Arizona, and sister, Jackie Mauser, of Kaw City, Oklahoma. She is also survived by her four children, Tina Schneider, Tanya Goodman, Tom Goodman (Sarah), and Teddi Goodman (Tracy); her 11 grandchildren and nine great-grandchildren; and numerous nieces and nephews. 

Carolynne’s Bible Verse: “For where your treasure is, there will your heart be also.” Matthew 6:21
