Spencer

Carol Ann Spencer, beloved mother, grandmother, and dedicated member of the Sag Harbor community, passed away peacefully in her home on October 18th 2024 at the age of 80.

Born on May 7th 1944, Carol was a loving and devoted mother to her two sons, Todd and Glen, and a cherished grandmother to her three grandchildren, Cassandra, Connor, and Riley. She was a guiding force in their lives, offering love, wisdom, and unwavering support.

Carol graduated with a B.S. in nursing from the University of Massachusetts and for nearly 30 years, Carol served as the school nurse for the Sag Harbor School District, where she touched the lives of countless students and their families. Her compassion and care went far beyond the call of duty, and she was known for her ability to make everyone feel safe and comforted, whether it was for a scraped knee or a serious illness. Her dedication to the health and well-being of children was a testament to her nurturing spirit.

Carol was also deeply involved in the Sag Harbor community. As an active member of the Sag Harbor Old Whalers Church, she gave her time and energy to countless church events, services, and initiatives. Her faith was a cornerstone of her life, and she found great joy in serving others through the church.

In addition to her work at the church, Carol was a tireless supporter of the Sag Harbor Community Food Pantry, where she volunteered to ensure that no one in her community went without the basic necessities. Her kindness and generosity knew no bounds, and she touched many lives through her service.

Carol's warmth, kindness, and selflessness will be missed by all who knew her. She leaves behind a legacy of love, compassion, and community spirit that will continue to inspire those who had the privilege of knowing her.

Carol, preceded in death by her father Frederick John Bollenbach; her mother Catherine Weidemann and her brother Daryl Bollenbach, is survived by her brother Peter; sons, Todd and Glen; her grandchildren, Cassandra, Connor, and Riley; and a wide circle of family, friends, and community members whose lives she enriched.

A celebration of Carol's life will be held at The Old Whalers Church, 44 Union St, Sag Harbor, NY 11963 on Wednesday October 23rd, at 4:00pm. In lieu of flowers, the family requests donations be made to the Sag Harbor Community Food Pantry.

She will be forever remembered and deeply missed.
