Carol Ann Clipper
Carol Ann Clipper, 69 years old, of St. Louis, MO, born on June 1, 1947 in East. St. Louis, IL, passed away at her home surrounded by her loving family and friends on Sunday morning, October 16th, 2016. Carol fought a lengthy and courageous battle with ovarian cancer, to which she begrudgingly submitted. The immensely caring, encouraging and hopeful nature of the staff and oncologist at Cancer Treatment Centers of America in Zion, IL enabled her to fight and persist beyond imagination.
Carol was preceded in death by her parents Evelyn A. Clipper (nee Killingsworth) and Charles A. Clipper and several aunts and uncles. Surviving are Carol’s siblings, Robert C. Clipper, Ph.D and Sheri L. Miller; Earl K. Clipper and Sally Clipper; Jeannie M. and Kevin Simpson; nieces Angela and Michael Ryffel, Melissa and Jason Stranger; nephews Todd C. Clipper, Kevin and Sarah Clipper, and Michael Clipper, great nieces and nephew, Madeline Ryffel, Emma Ryffel, Annie Ryffel, Jillian Stranger, Ryan Clipper and Reese Clipper.
Memorial services will be held on Saturday, October 22nd at 9:30am at St. George Catholic Church, 4980 Heege Road in Affton, MO. Memorial contributions may be made to the Cancer Treatment Centers of America through Gateway for Cancer Research, 1336 Basswood Road, Schaumburg, IL 60173.
Carol was a loyal friend and will be greatly missed.
We have all lost a wonderful friend. Worked with Carolyn for over 20 years, and a more dedicated and loyal worker you would never find. May she now rest at Peace with our Lord and Savior.

I have wonderful memories of the mischief we got in to as children. Cousin Carol was my idol…so pretty and talented. I will always remember your smile, laugh and twinkle in your eye.
I am truly saddened by this news. I temember Carol as a strikingly beautiful young lady. She had a gentle spirit and dazzling smile. Rest in peace, Carol and enjoy being pain free at last. Prayers for your family.
