Carol Ann Chambers

Carol Ann Chambers, passed away peacefully, surrounded by family, on Tuesday, September 8, 2026, at the age of 84. She was born in Detroit, Michigan, on May 23, 1942, to Walter and Virginia (nee Slassa) Jaworski. Carol lived a life centered around her family, her faith, and the many people she welcomed into her heart. She had a quick wit, a warm heart, and a gift for making those around her feel at home. She was curious, independent, and always interested in the world around her. She loved a good book, watching a beautiful sunset, and, of course, her coffee. She also loved keeping up with the news, and her family knew that when the news was on, it was best not to interrupt her. Carol was a woman of many talents and many chapters. Throughout her life, she held a variety of occupations and embraced each new chapter with determination, hard work, and her genuine ability to connect with people. Among her many careers, she worked as a real estate agent, where her honest, caring, and approachable nature helped countless families find homes of their own. But Carol was so much more than any one profession, she was someone who was always willing to learn, work hard, try something new, and make the most of whatever life brought her way. Carol was also known for being young at heart. She carried a youthful spirit and sense of humor throughout her life, never losing her curiosity, playfulness, or ability to enjoy the little things. Her youthful outlook was one of the qualities that made her so special and allowed her to connect with people of all ages. Carol’s faith was an important part of her life. She was a devoted and beloved member of St. Veronica Catholic Church in Eastpointe, where she was always willing to lend a hand, whether helping clean the church or taking part in parish events. Her faith was reflected not only in her devotion to the church, but also in the kindness, compassion, and generosity she showed to others. Above all, Carol loved her family. She was her grandchildren’s biggest cheerleader, always proud of them and eager to see them succeed. She celebrated their accomplishments, encouraged their dreams, and created countless memories that they will carry with them forever. Her love, laughter, humor, and unwavering support were gifts her family will treasure always. Carol is predeceased by her beloved late husband, Richard “Skip.” Devoted mother of the late Danny (Elaine) Chambers, Lisa (Jon) West, Laura (Mark) Oliver, the late Gary Chambers, Greg (Heidi) Chambers, and Lori Talbot (daughter Anna). Loving grandmother of Christian, Nichole (Jacob son JJ), Matthew, Mary Grace, Bernadette, the late Blaze, Braden, Otto, Noah (Aja), Taylor, Autumn, and Meghan. Dear sister of Rick, Eddie, and the late Diane. Carol’s life was full of many chapters, many occupations, many interests, and, most importantly, many people she loved. Her presence brought something special to the lives of everyone who knew her. She had a way of making ordinary moments meaningful and leaving people feeling a little more loved than before. Though she will be deeply missed, Carol’s memory will live on through her family, the lessons she shared, the laughter she brought, and the love she gave so freely.
