Thomas Henry Carroll, Jr.
July 4, 1954 - August 19, 2018
Thomas Henry Carroll Jr. passed away on August 19, 2018 following a long courageous fight with cancer at the age of 64 in Fort Lauderdale, Florida. He was born on July 4, 1954 in Kansas City, Missouri to TWA Captain Thomas H Carroll Sr. and Theresa Carroll nee Caterino.
He had a wonderful sense of humor, paired with a sharp intellect and passion for life. He was a jack of all trades and a master of many. These qualities made everyone seek him out for conversations, advice and encouragement or simply the healing powers of a good laugh. He was a wonderful son, husband, father, brother and friend.
Tom is survived by his wife of 38 years Kari Carroll nee Herbert, daughter Katrina Carroll, son Thomas H Carroll III, his 9 siblings and many nieces and nephews.
There will be a private viking funeral at a future date. Tom's family asks that in lieu of flowers a donation can be made to the American Cancer Society or VITAS Hospice Care in his name.
