Carolyn Ruth Jones Maywald, 73, of LaBelle lost her brief but courageous battle with lung cancer Sunday, March 1, 2009. She died peacefully at her home under the warm and watchful eye of Harbor Hospice.
Her best friend and loving husband of forty-eight years, Charles H. Maywald preceded her in death.
Survivors include her daughter, Cheryl Lynn Maywald; son, Robert Kyle Maywald and his wife Gay all of Beaumont; her sister, Betty Whynot and her husband Poochie; and a host of nieces, nephews, and a loving family of in-laws who loved her like one of their own. Last but not least the three dogs that she loved so much, Chewy, Maggie and Gus, who won’t know how to act without her.
Carolyn was an avid fisherwoman in her day and worked hard at being the best mother and wife her family could ask for. She will be sorely missed by all of those who knew and loved her.
