lysis for a year. Sadly, weeks after the transplant, her husband Tom passed away. Once again, Carol's strength and determination shone through as she recovered from the transplant and redefined her life, making new friends and finding new hobbies - including bridge, which she played regularly with many wonderful friends. She also traveled, taking an Alaskan cruise and trips to Florida. Sadly, her health began to decline, making travel more difficult - though she continued playing bridge with her gracious friends, who often came to her for games. Her soul was peacefully freed from her body on a cloudy fall morning. Carol is survived by her son, Todd (Jae) Werndli and their children, Alexander Jett and Margaret Kristine; her daughter, Becky (Ted) Broering and their children, Samuel Hunter and Sophie Kathryn. She was preceded in death by her husband, Thomas Jett, and her parents, Erling and Myrtle Swensen. A memorial service will be held at 11 am on Friday, November 10, 2017 at Cress Funeral Home, 3610 Speedway Road, Madison with Reverend John Swanson officiating. Family will greet friends after 10 a.m. until the time of service. Gifts may be made to the UW Health transplant program (uwhealth.org/transplant) or the Restoring Hope Transplant House (restoringhope.org). Please share your memories of Carol.
