Garrett, East Dubuque, IL; and Troy (Jackie) Leibold, and their children, Will and Lauren, Dubuque, IA; her siblings, Jerry (Sue) Lolwing, Platteville, WI; and Sharon (James) Schwarz, Madison, WI.

Carol was preceded in death by her parents, a son, Bradley Joseph, and infant Leibold at childbirth, a granddaughter, Kelly Marie Sedbrook, and a good friend, Shirley Rossing.

The Leibold family would like to thank Dr. Hartmann, Dr. Hermann, and their staff, Hospice of Dubuque, and the staff at the Bell Tower Retirement Community for the special care provided to their wife and mother.
