Carolyn Foster Campbell

Carolyn Foster Campbell, age 78, was called to heaven on October 23, 2019. She was born December 27, 1940 in New Orleans, Louisiana. She was predeceased by her father, Edward Samuel Foster, her mother, Lillian Finnan Foster, and her granddaughter, Isabel Lily Songy. Carolyn is survived by two daughters, Kim Campbell Carstens and Paula Campbell Songy (Darrin) and two sons, Christopher Foster Campbell and Peter James Campbell (Anja); five grandchildren, Tia, Caroline, Kayla, Christopher and Emily; former daughter-in-law, Jamie Campbell; three great-grandchildren, Trent, Gracie and Lillian; two sisters, Linda Foster Watkins (Joe) and Sandra Foster Rea (Ray); nieces, Stacey Ortega (Fabricio) and Laura Cook; nephews, Mark Rea (Angela), Lance Watkins (Sandy), and Scott Watkins (Frances), along with one great nephew, a host of great nieces and one great-great nephew. Carolyn was a Billing Supervisor for Jefferson Parish Water Department and retired in 2003. Cooking, listening to music, dancing, and just being around family, friends and her loving pets were some of her favorite things to do. She treasured her children first and foremost. Carolyn’s mission in life was to be a dedicated, loving mother, grandmother and great-grandmother. She fulfilled this mission wholeheartedly. She was the most giving person and had the most wonderful personality, always making everyone laugh. Carolyn was the most selfless person ever to walk on the face of the earth. She had the biggest heart and smile that she shared with everyone who crossed her path. She will be missed by everyone (including her loyal grandpets, Paisley, Tucker and Minnie) beyond measure, but will always remain in our hearts.
