Carroll S. Levin
Carrol S. Levin of Wellesley, most recently residing at Newbridge on the Charles, Dedham, passed peacefully on August 27, 2025, three days before her 98th birthday. Carrol was born in Chicago, daughter of Robert and Dora Silverman. She graduated from the University of Wisconsin at Madison with a degree in biology where she met her husband Robert (Bob) Levin, who was raised in the Boston area. After graduation from Wisconsin, Bob and Carrol moved to Boston and raised their son Richard (Rick) and daughter Cathy in Newton.
While raising her family, Carrol was active with various charitable activities and was a fashion model. When her modeling career ended, she worked at high-end clothing boutiques for many years. Her interest in fashion was a driving force throughout her life and she was very glamorous (and an enthusiastic shopper!). Bob and Carrol had an active social life and travelled extensively. She loved entertaining friends and family, whether hosting large parties or weekly card games. When her children left the house, they maintained homes in Wellesley and Lake Worth, FL, and treasured time spent at their home on the Cape in Falmouth.
Carrol was predeceased by Bob after 64 years of marriage and by her daughter Cathy. She leaves behind her son and his wife Arlene; their children Matthew of Atlanta; and Scott and Scott’s wife Ariel Nelson and their daughters, Avery and Sylvie, of Boston; and her granddaughters Samantha Shuman of New York City and Rachel Sullivan and her husband, Michael Sullivan and their children, Carly and Tyler of Milton.
There will be a funeral service in the Chapel at Sharon Memorial Park, 40 Dedham St., Sharon, MA, on Thursday, September 4, 2025, at 1:00PM, where she will be interred. A reception will be held at the home of Richard and Arlene after the burial.
Should friends desire, contributions may be made to the Alzheimer’s Association or the charity of their choice.
