MADISON - Jean A. Carow, age 87, of Madison, passed away surrounded by family on Tuesday, Aug. 23, 2011, at Meriter Hospital.
She was born April 24, 1924, in Madison, the daughter of the late Floyd and Sarah "Sally" (McNulty) Conner. She was married Sept. 6, 1945, to William A. Carow and they have enjoyed almost 66 years together. Jean was a sweet and gentle person who never had an unkind word for anyone. She was a wonderful friend and mother and will be deeply missed.

We are grateful to the Verona Police and Fire Department first responders, who were so kind, Four Winds Lodge for their kind and compassionate care and Meriter ICU staff for their loving care of our mother in her last days.

I'm looking for the obituary for Jean's husband William (Billy) Carow. He passed away November 24, 2011 and was a 1942 graduate.
Hello Katie,
The William Carow obituary is in my queue of obituaries what require additional research because we don't have the class year. If you'll provide me with your relationship to him and confirm the class year as 1942, I'll get it posted and send you a link. There would be a noted at the bottom that would read something like this: Information about William Carow's class year is based on information provided by ________.
