Sharon “Jill” (Deemer) Carroll, 73, of Indiana, passed away on Wednesday, November 24, 2021 at her residence. She was born on September 9, 1948 in Punxsutawney to the late Emmer and Helen (Weber) Deemer.
Jill graduated in 1966 from Punxsutawney High School and married her husband Fred on April 24, 1967. She worked for the Maple Leaf Restaurant from 1966 to 1967 and then for Goodwill of Indiana for 17 years. Jill enjoyed traveling with her husband and spending time with her family. Her love for the Pittsburgh Steelers was extreme; friends and family were forbidden to phone her during a game. She refused to answer questions or speak to anyone; nothing around her mattered while she watched her Steelers play.
In addition to her parents, Jill was preceded in death by her brothers Bill and Charles “Chick” Deemer, sister Ruth Ann Naper, nephew Steve Poulin, great nephew Steven Poulin, and a niece Rhonda Deemer.
Surviving is her husband of 54 years Fred W. Carroll of Indiana, daughter Robyn Custer of East Conemaugh, grandson Samuel Custer of Johnstown, sisters Barb Poulin of Hanover, Pa and Wendy (Randy Hurd) Deemer of Marion Center, several nieces and nephews, and her best friends Deb, Nancy, Bell and Gloria (deceased).
At Jill’s request all services will be private and have been entrusted to the Bowser-Minich Funeral Home, Indiana. Donations in Jill’s memory may be made to the American Cancer Society.
