Doreen M. Carr, age 64, of Carthage, passed away in mid-November from natural causes.

A native of Trumbull, Connecticut, she was a daughter of the late John and Olympia Sabatino.

Doreen graduated from Stonehill College, in Easton, Massachusetts with a degree in psychology. After graduation, she was a valued employee of the Pitney Bowes corporation in Connecticut. She worked for many years as a jewelry designer and sold her distinctive works at local craft fairs and shops. She was also the owner-operator of Succulent City, where she grew succulent plants with her amazing green thumb. Her last job was as a barista at Starbucks, where she loved meeting new people. 

Doreen moved to Carthage in 1999 along with her parents, and her husband, Dennis who all preceded her in death.

Doreen greatly enjoyed cooking, spending time with friends, and caring for animals. She loved her friends and was always ready to help in any eventuality. Her heart was enormous. Doreen’s loss has left a huge hole in the hearts of the many who cared for her.  But sadness can only be replaced with smiles whenever anyone remembers Doreen.

Friends and family will be gathering for a time to remember the life of Doreen on Monday, January 27, 2025 from 2:00 – 3:00 p.m. at Buggy Town Coffee in Carthage. 

Fry & Prickett Funeral Home has arranged for the service.

Guestbook

  1. I met Doreen at a craft fair. She was selling her jewelry and we hit it off as friends and created a booth together called Wisteria in Vass. It ended up closing due to ownership of building passed. I kept in touch through fb. I sure will miss her.

  2. I met Doreen while working at Moore County Farm Bureau, she was always a great customer and very friendly. I know she will be missed by all. My prayers for her family

  3. My cousin Doreen and I grew up in Trumbull, CT, and I feel like I’ve lost a sister. Especially since we’re only children, which was unusual in the 1960s. I’m still in shock, and will miss her very much. My uncle John Sabatino, was the youngest brother of my father Frank. I’ve uploaded some photos of Doreen on her FB page, and will post them here after her memorial service.
