Carol (Mitola) Olexovitch

Carol Olexovitch, age 78, beloved wife of 58 years to John “Jack” Olexovitch entered peaceful rest on May 17, 2022 at CT Hospice in Branford with her husband by her side.

She was the daughter of the late Edward and Verna (Murphy) Mitola and was born on December 27, 1943 in Bridgeport. Mrs. Olexovitch was a Licensed Practical Nurse for many years in area nursing homes including Milford Health Care and Golden Hill before her retirement.

During her retirement Carol enjoyed “Wintering” in Florida with her husband. She loved reading Thrillers by the pool and gazebo. Carol loved her porch and her Saturday evening out with Jack. She also enjoyed visiting NYC for a Broadway show and the Diamond District. She had a special relationship with each of her children and grandchildren. She never lost her unique sense of humor, that’s what made her “Carol” “Mom” and “Grammie.”

In addition to her husband, she leaves her children, John “Jack” and his fiancé, Tricia Haviland of Milford, Scott and his wife, Susanne of Milford and Beth Acevedo and her husband, Javier of East Haven and three grandsons, John “Jack” (Chelsea), Jason and Joseph and a great granddaughter, Brooke Rylee. She also leaves her brother, Edward Mitola and his wife Joan of Fairfield and several nieces and nephews.

A Graveside Service will be held on Saturday, May 21, 2022 at 9:00 a.m. (DIRECTLY) at King’s Highway Cemetery, Milford. Arrangements have been entrusted with the GREGORY F. DOYLE FUNERAL HOME, 291 BRIDGEPORT AVENUE, MILFORD.
