Carol A. Abell, 72 of Lusby, MD passed away on April 13, 2011 at Calvert Memorial Hospital. Born March 20, 1939 in Salt Lake City, UT, she was the daughter of the late Pauline Sheen and Alvin Allred.

Carol married Thomas Abell on June 30, 1962 at St. George's Episcopal Church in Valley Lee. She retired from the US Air Force as an E9 after 20 years of service. She worked very hard and got many awards.

Carol loved to shop and spend time with her family and friends. She enjoyed cooking and baking, and was known for making the best lasagna, and chocolate chip cookies in the world. Carol was a very loving mother and wife, and her grandchildren (probably the best gift she ever received) were the apple of her eye.

Carol is survived by her husband, Thomas Abell, daughter Kathy (Kenny) Burch, brother, Curt Allred, and grandchildren, Katie Huber and Thomas Burch.

Carol was loved and will be missed by her family and friends more than we can express.

Funeral Services will be held on Thursday, April 21, 2011 at 1:00 p.m. in St. George's Episcopal Church with Father Greg Syler officiating. Interment will follow in the church cemetery.

Memorial contributions may be made to St. George's Episcopal Church, P.O. Box 30, Valley Lee, MD 20692
