Carol Ann Jefferies

Carol Ann Jeffries, 80, of Genoa, Ohio, passed away on Tuesday, May 16, 2023 at Mercy St. Vincent Medical Center with her family by her side. Carol was born in Oregon, Ohio to Louis and Armidiller (Buchanan) Schiavone on September 6, 1942.  She was a graduate from Clay High School and also a graduate of Heidelberg College with a Bachelor of Business Degree. She had worked for Unity Plus IBW Local 1076 as the plan administrator.  She was a faithful member of Calvary Lutheran Church.

Carol had a caring and loving heart; she saw the good in people and had the ability to raise their spirits with a smile and a kind word. She never met a stranger, and would take the time out of her day to learn about them. She would always find a way to assist and improve their situation. From the simplest thing such as a shoulder to lean on, to hours of time and knowledge to help solve a problem.

Carol adored her family and friends and was happiest when she could be with them. She and Ted enjoyed hosting gatherings at their home and cottage as well as lending a helping hand to loved ones while visiting them. She believed in the good in a person and worked hard to help them, her love had no boundaries. 

Carol never forgot a person once she knew them, she loved and carried them with her from that day on. She was a shining example of goodness, kindness, and love. She will be missed and loved by all as they carry her with them.

Simply put; We miss you already.  

Surviving is loving husband of 59 years, Birthel “Ted” Jeffries; son, Roger (Jennifer Pilzecker) Jeffries; daughter, Ann Jeffries; grandchildren Brian Jeffries, Sara and Samantha Welch; great grandson, Michael; sisters, Dorothy Allred and Carmela Racz. Carol was preceded in death by her parents.
