Obituary for Carol Olene Foley
With sad hearts we announce the death of our mother, Carol Olene Foley, 79. She passed away on June
30th at her home in Plymouth, MA.
She was the daughter of Stanley and Virginia Coburn and was born in Farmington Maine. She
graduated from high school and attended Barrington College in Rhode Island.
Carol didn’t share the dream of a big career outside her home but rather the dream of taking care
of her children and her grandchildren. Anyone who knew her knew that being around her kids
was what made her the happiest of all.
Carol is survived by her husband Richard of 58 years and her 3 children, Richard and Christina of Plymouth and Susannah of Carver. Carol was preceded in death by a child in 1969, Christopher John.
Carol has 12 grandchildren, Amanda, Mellisa, Jenneatte, Matthew, RJ, Tanya, Antonia, Tristan, Emma,
Jenna, Casey and Carley and 7 great grandchildren Sophia, Ava, Grayson, Kiera, Aiden, Xavier and
Roman.
Carol is also survived by her siblings Paul Coburn of New York, Steve Coburn of Massachusetts
and Kathleen Stewart of Pennsylvania.
Enough can’t be said of the loyalty of her dog Chloe. Carol loved that dog up until the day Chloe
walked away from her home shortly before Carol passed. Chloe gave Carol an enormous amount of
love and entertainment during her lifetime. Chloe never came back to the house that day.
