Carol Tannehill Faint, 79, passed away on Wednesday, January 16, 2019 in the loving embrace of her family.
Born on January 17, 1939 in Tuscaloosa Alabama, Carol's family moved to Panama City when she was very young. She graduated from Bay County High School and was an employee of the Chamber of Commerce and State Farm Insurance here. She began working for International Paper Company after a move to Mobile in 1974, and worked for International Paper and State Farm in Dallas after a 1980 move there. She and her husband Kenneth Faint retired to Panama City in 2003.
Carol was a vital, self-possessed woman and a dedicated mother, grandmother and great-grandmother. She is survived by her husband Kenneth, her children Teresa Faint Young, Kenneth Faint, Jr., and Michael Faint, her grandchildren Aaron Young, Taylor Young, Colin Young, Michael Anthony Faint, Kyla Faint, and Rachel Faint, her great-granddaughter Amelie Lepke-Young, and her sister Mary Gay Stanley.
In honoring Carol's wishes, there will be no public services. She would be very pleased by memorial contributions to a children's charity or to the Humane Society of Bay County. Lastly, the family thanks Emerald Coast Hospice for their expert, compassionate help and care.
