Carol (Smith) Stevens of Sylvania, OH passed away on the morning of Aug 31st. She was born to the late Donald and Mary (Gerrie) Smith in Ft. Sill, OK on October 1, 1951. Carol graduated from Sylvania High School in 1970. She worked for many years at the GTE Phone Company in Sylvania and then as an office manager at Cherry Hill Heating and Cooling. Carol later went on to achieve one of her life long goals and obtained a Bachelor’s degree from Lourdes University. She worked at Promedica until she retired in 2016.
Carol was an avid fan of Ohio State football and loved both the Summer and Winter Olympics. In retirement, she enjoyed being a volunteer reader at Hawkins Elementary School and was also a regular participant at Wildwood’s aqua aerobics. Carol’s greatest passion was spending time with family and friends. She was always the biggest cheerleader and greatest advocate of everyone she loved – particularly her grandchildren.

She was the proud grandmother to six grandchildren, Derek (Ashley), Taylor, McKenzie, Reece Pohlman; Grace and Natalie Pohlman. And one great-granddaughter, Adalynn.
