Carol Jean Reeveley, 1937-2019

Born Sept. 9, 1937, in Youngstown, Carol was the daughter of the late Frank and Dora DeSantis Schlatter.

Her greatest love was spending time with her family. Carol’s children, grandchildren and great-grandchildren meant the world to her. She was an animal lover and collected many treasures, including friends, as she always had time to stop and offer a smile and conversation to a stranger. She collected a variety of vintage dolls from different eras that tugged at her nostalgic heart.

Carol brought so much love into her family — a family not broken by the loss, but made stronger by the memories she left behind.

Carol will be sadly missed by her family, including her son, Thomas (Kris) Reeveley; her daughters, Susan Trimacco, Kimberly (Monte), Laura Duraney (fiance Bob) and Sherilynn (Donnie) Denton; 10 grandchildren, Sarah (Lee) Brice, Amanda Reeveley, Maya Reeveley, Jewelina Reeveley, Nichole Verbanovic, Ryan Trimacco, Brianna Rothacker, Matthew, Melony Duraney and Samuel Denton; and nine great-grandchildren; as well as her loving siblings, Sandra (Tom) Cimmento and Carla (Ed) Sauline; and dearest friends, Bonnie and Andrea, who made her days special.

Beside her parents, Carol was preceded in death by her husband, Roger Dale Reeveley; two infant children; and her brothers and sisters, Frank (Kathy) Schlatter, Paula Santisi, Ronald (Rene) DeSantis and Deloris (Sonny) Madeline.

A memorial service celebrating Carol’s life will be held 3 p.m. Saturday at Davidson-Becker Funeral Home in Struthers.

Friends will be received 1:30 to 2:45 p.m. at the funeral home.

Family and friends are invited to visit www.beckerobits.com to share memories and condolences.
