Carolyn Scheu

Carolyn Ann 'Greenie' (Green) Scheu of Savoy, IL earned her wings and became our angel in heaven on July 19, 2022. She was 72.

She was preceded in death by her mother Gertrude Bernadine Green, father Thomas Leroy Green, and brother Michael Green. She is survived by her husband Dennis Scheu, children Kristie (Andrew) Lamoreux and Thomas (Kristine) Scheu, grandchildren Carly, Kayla, Quinn (Kristie & Andrew Lamoreux), Oliver and Arthur (Tom & Kristine Scheu), brothers Marlin (Betty) Green, Patrick (Chris) Green, Robert (Pat) Green, and sister Marilyn Green.

Carolyn was born on September 21,1949 the daughter of Gertrude and Thomas Green. She married Dennis Scheu on September 18,1975 and had two children Kristie (Scheu) Lamoreux and Tom Scheu. Upon having children, she became a stay-at-home mom until returning to work part-time when her children were older. Carolyn then retired to become a full-time Gramma, which she said many times was her favorite job. Her five grandchildren were her pride and joy and she rarely missed one of their many events. Carolyn and Dennis also enjoyed many rides together in their 1928 Ford Model-A pickup truck. Whether it was on their own or with the many friends in the Model-A club, Carolyn rarely turned down the opportunity to go out for a ride.

To honor Carolyn's memory, an open house Celebration of Life will be held at Salt Fork Center, Homer Lake, IL on September 3, 2022 from 12:00pm to 4:00pm. Please join us for one of Carolyn's favorite activities - a casual gathering of family and friends. A private burial will be held at Evergreen Cemetery in Kinmundy, IL.

Memorial donations may be made to Crisis Nursery in Urbana, IL or Champaign County Humane Society.
