CAROL MARIE SCHMIDT (ne Frost) was called home to be with her Lord unexpectedly Saturday, August 10, 2019. She was met at Heavens gate by her husband, Robert, who passed away two years ago and whom she missed dearly. Carol was born on December 7, 1941, in Bay City, and was a graduate of T.L. Handy High School. Carol loved the Lord and while living in Bay City, she attended Zion Lutheran Church and was active in various groups, including the Young Married Club where they met some of their closest friends. She would also volunteer her time with the special education class at Regal Elementary. Carol and Robert would later split their time between their home in Mecosta, where she was a member of the Chapel of the Lakes Lutheran Church, and Fort Pierce, Florida where she was a member of Trinity Lutheran Church. She and Bob loved to sing in the Choir wherever they attended. Carol was a loving mother and enjoyed having the family together, especially over the Holidays. Carol was preceded in death by her loving husband of 56 years, Robert C. Schmidt. She was also predeceased by her brother, Ronald Frost and his wife Annette and her parents, Edward and Marie (Schaefer) Frost.
