Denise Carroll

Denise Lynn Carroll, 43, of Mansfield, died early Sunday morning, June 20, 2010 and is now home with Jesus. She was born November 11, 1966, in Chicago, Illinois to the late Matthew Frye, Sr. and Reba Frye. She loved Jesus with all her heart. She loved children and especially loved her own children. Denise loved to read, sing and most of all, enjoyed spending time with her husband, children and family. She had been ill for 3 years, is now home with her Father in Heaven and she will see us again someday.

She is survived by her husband, Blaine Carroll; her children, Crystal Josh Frye Stutz, Blaine Carroll II and Logan Kye Carroll, all of Mansfield; grandchildren, Ava Rain Stutz, Kaden Stutz; three sisters, Glenda Gary Duncan, Linda Stamper and Brenda Matthews; two brothers, Matthew Frye, Jr. and John Ilene Rose, both of Mansfield; grandmother, Helen Webb; mother-in-law, Beverly Cook of Mansfield; and numerous nieces and nephews.

One of Blaine's favorite Bible verses was 'Husbands love thy wife as Christ loved the church and gave His life for us, the church'. I may not know what I ask, because in Heaven all tears are wiped away and no more pain. But I would trade with her, so she can stay with our children and grandbabies.

Blaine states 'the Lord broke the mold when he made such a beautiful soul, my wife, Denise. The Lord dressed the Lillie of the field and He dressed her for me. Denise was my companion for 23 years. The Lord said He knew us before we were in the womb and we were fearfully and wonderfully made. Lord, You are the greatest. Thank you for loving us.'

Funeral services will be held Wednesday, June 23, 2010 at 1:00 p.m. in the Ontario Home of Wappner Funeral Directors with Pastor Randall Collins officiating. Friends and family may visit from 12 p.m. until the time of the service. Burial will follow in Mansfield Memorial Park. Memorial contributions may be made to the family.
