Carole Marie Rumbaugh

We are proud to announce that my Mom, Carole Marie Beckham Rumbaugh, has successfully completed her purpose and journey in this life and passed on to the next. At this moment she has probably quietly snuck away from her welcome celebration with family and friends to the closest library in Heaven. I’m sure she has found a good book to read in a comfy chair. Of course there is a cat sleeping in her lap. That is what makes it Heaven.

Carole Marie lead a life devoted to God her Creator, her friends and loved ones, animals and knowledge. She was beautiful, intelligent and strong. She loved deeply, hated injustice, fought for the under dog, and stood up to bullies no matter how powerful they thought they were.

She continues to be my wonderful mother and guiding light. Mom, please hug everyone from me. Thank you for giving me the foundation to build an amazing life. I’ll continue your fight for fairness and join you someday when my journey here is done. Save me a seat next to you in the library. We love you always and forever.

Per Mom’s wishes, instead of a service or flowers we will honor her by making a donation to animal charities. We are providing a link to the Lake County Animal Shelter if you would also like to honor her with a donation. Thank you.
