Carol Nice

Carol Nice, age 82, passed away after a two-year intense struggle with ALS, commonly known as Lou Gehrig’s disease.  As she could not talk, eat, and had a feeding tube—during much of that time—she ultimately won her battle with this demon disease as she is now at peace. Her fierce strength and independence was evident until her final days. She was born in Akron, Ohio on January 9, 1938 to the late John Lucas and Ruth (Dulepka) Stasitis. She lived in Akron, Parma, Brecksville, Ohio, finally settling in Sheffield Lake, Ohio so that she and her beloved husband, Dave, could live next door to her daughter and grandson and return to peace on the shores of Lake Erie. In Carol’s younger years, she loved to work alongside her grandparents at the Crystal Candy Company. She was employed with Ohio Bell for 8 years after high school, and later in life was a part time florist for many years. Mostly, she was an amazing homemaker, wonderful wife, the best Mom her daughter could have ever asked for, an incredibly loving and generous “Mom Mom” as Hunter called her; and a loyal friend to many.

Carol loved to garden and could be found with Dave in the yard rain or shine. She loved to read, go boating on Lake Erie and travel.  She loved to decorate and entertain.  Her home was filled with anything that shined and glittered—including countless friends and family she took so much pleasure in hosting throughout the years. Carol or “Duck” -as Dave always called her-will be missed by many.

In addition to her parents, Carol leaves behind her loving family which includes her husband, David Nice-of whom she was married just shy of 65 years; daughter, Laurie Nice Reese; grandson, Hunter Reese; sister, Cindy Hash; and many extended family and beloved friends.
