Obituary of Carol Jane Anderson Feik Yocom

Carol Jane Anderson Feik Yocom went home to the Lord on July 4th, 2023 in peace at Community Hospice.

 

Carol was born December 23, 1933 and was a life time resident of Fort Worth. She graduated from Paschal High School. She earned her Bachelor of Science in Education at TCU and her Masters of Arts in Teaching at Texas Women’s College. She was a member of Chi Omega sorority, Junior league, the Women's Club and the 1952 Paschal Panthers.

 

Carol taught at Western Hills high school and All Saints Episcopal School. She was selected to be the Director of Saint Francis Episcopal School and she served in that position for several years helping to direct the building of their first dedicated classroom building.

 

She was a very busy person, as she volunteered at Cook's Children Hospital and John Peter Smith Hospital. Carol delivered hot meals to needy people with Meals On Wheels for seven years. Carol taught Sunday School for years, served as VBS Director for three years and served as a missionary to the Tarahumara Indians in Mexico’s Copper Canyon for seven years.  Her favorites were Meals on Wheels with her husband, Jerry, and All Saints Hospital, as she followed in the footsteps of her great grandmother, Maria Beggs, who was a founder of the hospital. 

 

She was preceded in death by her husband of 28 years Thomas Nabb Feik, her parents James and Caroline Anderson, her brother James Carlin Anderson and daughter-in-law Kelly Runnion Feik.
