Carol Kirwan

Everyone who ever met Carol instantly loved her. She was a sweet soul and always had a smile on her face. She was kind, a great listener and never wanted to be a bother to anyone. Carol loved the Kansas City Chiefs and watched every game faithfully. Frank Sinatra, John Wayne, old Western’s, reading and Coca Cola were some of her loves. But most of all she loved her family! Her favorite times were around the dining room table with family & friends laughing and reliving the antics over the years!

After living in Independence, MO for over 53 yrs she moved to Gladstone, MO with David and Misty, who cherished every moment growing closer to Carol. Carol always loved to take walks from her younger years walking with Roger on dates to her older years taking Pepper for walks on the trails. She enjoyed traveling, but especially loved the motorcycle trips to the Sturgis rally with Roger, David & Misty and Mike & Jean.

Carol was preceded in death by her beloved husband Roger P. Kirwan; and her parents Frank & Louise Bedenik.

She is survived by 2 sons & their spouses and a daughter-David & Misty Kirwan; Mike & Jean Kirwan and Margaret Bacon. Grandchildren Charlotte & Jake Kirwan; Brad Bauer & Donnie Green. Great Grandchildren Sophia Kirwan, Holly Kirwan; Zamien, Preston & Leland Green. Cousin Sandra Georgie & family. Friends Karen & Becky. And her special furbaby Pepper.
