Carolyn L. Partridge
September 7, 1923 — August 24, 2015
Mrs. Carolyn Lurtz Partridge, age 91 of Murray, Kentucky passed away on Monday, August 24, 2015 at the Murray Calloway County Hospital.
Mrs. Partridge was born on September 7, 1923 in Cleveland, Ohio and graduated Summa Cu Laude from Fenn College (Cleveland State University) with a bachelor's degree in business. She was employed as an executive secretary and office manager while devoting her life to raising and caring for her family.
Carolyn was a member of Chi Cons CCL. She and her late husband, Wilbur where founding members of the North Columbus Baptist Church, where she served as pianist for many years.
A deeply devout woman and a voracious reader; she was proud of having read the entire Bible numerous times. She also enjoyed Shakespeare and the mysteries of Tony Hillerman. She passed on her love of learning to her children.
Carolyn's extensive vocabulary and knowledge allowed her to blaze through crossword puzzles and other word games. She finished the most difficult New York Times crossword puzzles up until recently. She had an encyclopedic knowledge and appreciation for movies and music. She possessed a fine sense of humor and laughed easily. She made awesome cookies and loved chocolate. A generous and caring woman, Carolyn touched the lives of all who knew her.
She was preceded in death by her husband, Wilbur Partridge and her parents, Martin and Emma Lurtz.
She is survived by her loving children, daughter Carol Perlow and husband Michael of Murray, Kentucky; sons, David Partridge and wife Linda of Fleetwood, Pennsylvania and James Partridge and wife Linda of Olmsted, Ohio; brother-in-law, Paul Partridge of Sarasota, Florida; grandchildren, David Perlow and wife Stephanie of Murray, Kentucky, Jennifer Perlow of Mt. Juliet, Tennessee, Daniel Partridge and wife Rebecca of Oberlin, Ohio, Joe Stafford and wife Kirsten of Morrow, Ohio and Susan Dennis of Cleveland, Ohio; as well as her great grandchildren, Theodore and Penelope Perlow, Luke and Ava Partridge, Naomi and Mathew Dennis.
