Mary Lynn Carroll

Mary Lynn Carroll, born on March 16, 1953, to Creed Jackson Williams and Nilda Adella Beverly Williams, left this world surrounded by love and cherished memories. She devoted her life to serving others and was a beacon of selflessness, compassion, and unconditional love. In her early years, Mary Lynn worked tirelessly as a member of the rescue squad, fulfilling her passion for helping those in need. Later, she transitioned to Coca-Cola, where she dedicated herself until her well-deserved retirement. Mary was the proud and loving mother of Matthew Shawn Carroll and the devoted grandmother of Joshua Matthew Carroll, whom she affectionately called “Bird.” Her family was her world, and she poured her heart into every moment with them. She was equally adored by her daughter-in-law, Samantha Carroll, and embraced Josh’s wife, Taylor Carroll, as her own “little girl,” forming an unbreakable bond of love and respect. Her early marriage to Doug Carroll of Appalachia brought her son into the world, but later in life, she found enduring love with her partner of over 20 years, Terrence E. Cook, who preceded her in death 15 years ago. Together, they shared a life full of love, joy, and unwavering support. Mary Lynn's love extended beyond her family. She had a special place in her heart for her dogs, Marley and Tanner, who were her steadfast companions and brought her immense happiness. Mary was a devoted sister to her two brothers, John David Williams and Jackie Williams, and her sister, Lola Williams, cherishing the bonds of family throughout her life. To those who knew her, Mary Lynn was an extraordinary woman—selflessly loving, incredibly strong, and endlessly kind. She leaves behind a legacy of love that will forever be felt by her family, friends, and all whose lives she touched. A private family service will be held to honor her memory, celebrating the remarkable life she lived and the boundless love she shared. Rest in peace, “Mamal,” as you join your beloved Terry and watch over us all. You will forever be in our hearts. Her final resting place will be in Millers Chapel by her parents. "She was the kind of soul that made love feel tangible-a selfless giver, a quiet hero, and a steady light in the lives of all who knew her. Her kindness wasn't loud, but it was profound; her strength wasn't boastful, but it was unshakable. She loved fiercely, gave endlessly, and left the world far better than she found it."
