Carol Stapleton Florey

Carol Stapleton Florey, of South Abington Township, passed away suddenly early Tuesday morning surrounded by family.  Born an only child on March 22, 1942 to the late Warren and Josephine Wagner Stapleton in Lewisburg, PA. She is survived by her loving husband of 55 years, Thomas Florey; daughter, Kelli Eisenlohr and husband Mark, of Clarks Summit; daughter, Amy Florey, of Clarks Summit; son, Edward Florey, of Factoryville.  Her three grandchildren are Paige and Dylan Eisenlohr and Taylor Florey.

Carol was a graduate of Lewisburg High School 1960 and had a Registered Nurse degree from the University of Pennsylvania. She has been an invaluable co-owner of Florey Insurance Agency Inc. since it's inception and still at age 78 would be there 6 days a week working.  She is a member of the Clarks Summit Methodist Church and immensely enjoyed her 49 years membership to the Abington Heights Civic League Inc.

Carol was the devoted family cornerstone.  She would never miss a event for any of her children or grandchildren.  These included driving 3 hours in a snow storm for a dance recital, driving to Ohio to see the ATV races, or the countless sporting events in soccer, field hockey, wrestling, tennis, basketball, and more.  She loved to drive anywhere, anytime.  Carol loved her friends, traveling, football, not cooking, her Saturday mornings with Taylor, watching Paige start her career in CA, and so happy to see Dylan grasp his venture into the family business.  Carol will be greatly missed by many because of her special way of making people feel like they meant so much to her.

A graveside service led by Reverend Andy Weidner will be held on Friday at 11 am at the Abington Hills Cemetery.

In lieu of flowers, memorials may be made to St. Jude Children's Research Hospital, 262 Danny Thomas Place, Memphis, TN 38105.

Arrangements are entrusted to the care of the Lawrence E. Young Funeral Home, 418 State St., Clarks Summit, PA 18411.
