Carol A Wrigley

Carol A. Wrigley, of Middleburgh, passed away peacefully on Friday, January 27, 2024 at Robinson Terrace in Stamford, NY.

Carol was born 79 years ago in Brooklyn, on January 23, 1945 and was proud that the date of her birth was “12345.”  She was married in 1964 to Edward R. Wrigley, Sr., her best friend and love of her life, and together they moved their family to Middleburgh in 1971.  

Carol worked at Howe Caverns, Walmart and Middleburgh Central School as an aide for many years.  Strong willed and independent, you knew exactly what was on Carol’s mind and exactly what she thought about you.  She never missed a trip to the casinos and playing the slot machines, venturing to Las Vegas, Atlantic City, Foxwoods and Turning stone and also enjoyed the novelty of shopping from home, thanks to QVC.

Carol is survived by her daughter: Denise (Dan) Pigott of Middleburgh; her sons: Edward R. (Ricki) Wrigley, Jr. of Middleburgh and Richard (Chrissy) Wrigley of Breakabeen; seven grandchildren; two great-grandchildren; her siblings: Jimmy, Joe and Eleanor and many nieces and nephews.  Carol was predeceased by her husband, Edward R. Wrigley, Sr. and her siblings: Henry, Pat and Loretta.

A graveside service and inurnment will be held in the spring, in Middleburgh Cemetery.

Carol’s family asks that memorial donations in her honor be sent to the Schoharie Valley Animal Shelter, PO Box 40, Howes Cave, NY 12092
