Carole shared a beautiful life with her husband, Robert Dale Burkitt, of 50 years, building a home that was a sanctuary of love, laughter, and cherished memories. Together, they raised three wonderful children, Eric M. Allen, Mellisa (Allen) Kroh, and Robert G. Burkitt, who were the hearts of her world. Carole’s pride and joy also extended to her grandchildren, Landon Allen, Hope Allen, Talan Burkitt, and Makenna Burkitt, who will carry her memory in their hearts forever.
