Carole Ann Parsley Vagott
October 22, 2016
Carole Ann Parsley Vagott, 58, passed away on October 22, 2016 following a lingering illness. She was preceded in death by her dad, Allen Jay Parsley Sr. She and her husband Joe Vagott resided in Gatlinburg, TN at the time of her death. Carole was an avid reader, and when you were with her, you would see her carrying a number of books everywhere she went. She loved to travel, and when given the opportunity, she would go with her family at a moment’s notice. Skiing was a love of Carole’s, both snow skiing and water skiing. When she loved a person, she loved him/her fiercely and would not allow anyone to speak ill of the ones she loved. Armed with a quick wit and a sarcastic comeback, Carole was always finding humor in situations that seemed to be no laughing matter. Her laughter was ubiquitous and indelible. She was a registered nurse, having received her four-year degree from Middle Tennessee State University. Always learning, Carole was an exceptional nurse and had many stories to relate about caring for others. With a tender Heart and a loving touch, she cared for patients in many hospitals. Even though she loved to travel and lived in Tennessee at the time of her passing, Carole never forgot her home state of West Virginia. She very proudly announced the fact that she was born in West Virginia and was from Parsley Bottom. She was a proud Baptist, a conservative thinker, and a friend extraordinaire. In addition to her husband, Carole leaves behind a host of people who love her dearly: her daughter Chole (Josh) Dewey, her mother, Betty Parsley, siblings, Allen J. “Sock” (Beth) Parsley, Teresa (Mike) Matney; her nieces Emily Cloer, and Katie Parsley, nephews, Zane Parsley and Nathan Matney, she also leaves behind a host of loving cousins, aunts, uncles, and friends. We will always hold our memories in or hearts of Carole and how she touched our lives. A memorial service will be held for Carole on Sunday, Nov. 20, 2016 at 2:00pm at the Parsley Bottom Freewill Baptist Church, Lenore, WV. In lieu of flowers, the family requests donations be sent to Salt of the World Ministries, PO Box 2521, Huntington, WV 25726-2521. Online condolences can be made at ChafinFuneralHome.Com.
