Carol Norling Obituary

Carol Ruth Norling
Carol Ruth Norling, age 83. At peace after a valiant fight against cancer. She was preceded in death by her parents, Oscar and Ruth (nee Korn) Norling. She is survived by her cousin, William Schilling, a very extended family and many friends and neighbors. She was a proud graduate from Northwestern. She worked as a window dresser for Marshall Fields, but her passions were her cats, her garden and her art. She was a close friend and studio partner with Charles Vickery. A life-long LaGrange resident, she volunteered locally at the LaGrange Community Nurses Association Thrift Shop and the Historical Society. Interment 1pm on Saturday, July 17 at the Bronswood Cemetery Mausoleum, 3805 Madison St., Oak Brook, IL 60523. Memorial gifts may be made to Angels for Hospice Charities, 445 West Erie Street, Suite 203, Chicago, IL 60654 or Grace Lutheran Church, 200 N. Catherine Ave., La Grange, IL 60525.

I just learned of Carol's passing today.

Carol was my neighbor for several decades and actually used to baby sit me in the early fifties. I was amazed by her artwork which can be found in various locations around La Grange.

Rest in peace, my friend.

Very saddened to hear of Carol´s passing. She was a dear friend of my mother and family. Always remember her passion for Felix and Papparazzi her cats, amazing artistry skills and even love for the tortoise family that I take care of! She is home with the Lord now, hopefully painting more amazing pictures of ships at sea alongside her cats!
