Carol Jean Karleskint

Tuesday, January 14, 2014

Carol Jean Karleskint, age 75, went home to be with her Jesus on Monday, Jan. 13, 2014, at the Premier Living Homeplace in Wichita, Kan. She was born Dec. 24, 1938, in Fort Scott, Kan., the daughter of Fred Karleskint and Caroline Reiter Karleskint. Carol was the tenth of 13 children and she dearly loved her big family. Carol had many illnesses during her lifetime and was handicapped in many ways, but certainly not in her ability to love and help others. She was a true servant to everyone. She had many beautiful virtues, but she excelled in love and compassion for the sick. Carol lived most of her life at home with her parents. In 1982, she moved to Wichita, Kan., to live with her sister and brother-in-law, Patricia and Mack Hobbs who cared for her until 2006. Because of extensive physical needs, she was placed at "Mothers and Others" a longterm care facility where she received the best of care and much love. Carol dearly loved this home and all the staff were like family to her. A big thanks to all of them and to Jodi and her "Promises Kept" Staff as well as Good Shepherd Hospice. Carol was deeply loved by everyone and she will be greatly missed.
