Carole Louise (Lawing) Burnette Obituary
With profound sadness, we say goodbye to Carole Louise (Lawing) Burnette of Arden, North Carolina, whose vibrant spirit touched the lives of many. Carole left this world on November 16, 2025 at the age of 81, leaving a void in the lives of so many people. You can send your sympathy in the guestbook provided and share it with the family.
As we bid Carole farewell, let us not mourn the absence of her physical form, but rather celebrate the essence of her spirit that lingers in the spaces between moments. For Carole is not truly gone, but merely transformed, her energy intertwined with the fabric of the universe itself, forever dancing among the stars.
