Carol was born on Friday, July 27, 1945 to Noah and Leslie Blount of Bolivar, Ohio. She dedicated her life to the Lord at the age of 18, graduated from Perry High School in 1963 and married Dick Dye on January 2, 1965 at Canton Baptist Temple in Canton, Ohio. They had dated for 8 months. Together, they raised their five children at their family home in Jackson Township, Ohio. Dick and Carol moved to Canton in 2005 where they have cared so lovingly for each other since. Carol was known well for her unconditional love as a wife and mother, her home cooked meals, her creativity in sewing and art, her service to her Lord in her church, Canton Baptist Temple, her musical gifts and abilities in the church choir, her service during the early days of Camp CHOF, and as she led the childrens choir, the Sunshine Singers, for many years, as well as other groups. She and Dick served many military members in "Oasis", the military support group at CBT during the Gulf War. They served many recent years creating missionary displays and gathering testimonies from missionaries all around the world. During the last few years of her life, she desired to serve the Lord until He took her Home. When she was unable to physically serve in all the ways she desired, she poured her heart, time, tears, and love into writing the things God placed on her heart through the long days and nights of pain and suffering. God used this time to grow her spiritual soul when her physical body was suffering. We are incredibly grateful for the legacy she has left to her children, grandchildren, great grandchildren, and many generations to come. She taught her family to love Christ above anything else on this earth. She will be deeply missed here on earth, but she was ready to start eternity in heaven with her Lord. In lieu of flowers, family request donations to be made in Carol Dye's name to Canton Baptist Temple C/O Camp CHOF. Service will be held for Immediate Family at the Canton Baptist Temple at 515 Whipple Ave NW, Canton, Ohio 44708 with Rev. Delaney Young officiating. Interment will take place at North Lawn Cemetery.
