Siblings, cousins, nieces, nephews, children, friends and her late husband… how would they describe Carol Lee? “Strong” strong to the end as she battled for more than five years with Parkinson’s disease. Strong as she stood by her husband Morton for 58 years. “A Role Model” a role model to all, from her younger days as a sibling in a Brady Bunch family through adulthood with her friends and family and to the bitter end as she exuded courageousness as she fought a horrible disease. “Gifted” gifted with many creative skills as she was an avid quilter and stained-glass artist whose works adorn the home of the many she loved. Her skills as an antique collector were shared with friends and relatives as she scoured the shops through Michigan and Ohio. “Giving” giving of love, friendship, giving of her time and generosity. Carol was financial secretary and past president of the Jewish Auxiliary Home for the Aging. “Loving” a wonderful loving woman who touched all who had the privilege of knowing her. The focus of her love shifted heavily upon her seven grandchildren. “Grandma Carol”, “grandma” strove to attend all of their birthdays, dance events, sporting events and of course their Bar/Bat mitzvahs. A phone call to her sons was always initiated by “how are kids?” Rest In Peace It is suggested that those who wish to further honor the memory of Carol Lee Metzger may do so by making a contribution to: Friends of Jewish Senior LifeClick to Visit Charity Website or Michael J.
