Carol Levy Schulman, MSW, born June 28, 1947, in Little Rock, Arkansas, passed away suddenly on September 5, 2025, at Missouri Baptist Medical Center. She was the cherished wife of Jeffery, beloved mother of James and Andrew, adored daughter of the late Jerome and Marion (Lee) Levy, and loving sister of JJ Levy. She was 78 years old.
All who know and love her are shocked and saddened by her sudden death, which leaves a hole in their lives that will never be filled. Carol was renowned for her outgoing, relaxed, comfortable, and supremely happy disposition. She connected so magically with others, particularly with the children and adolescents whom she helped as a pediatric social worker.
Carol enjoyed a wonderful childhood with her loving parents and dear sister. Her father instilled in her a love for Washington University, his alma mater. She left Little Rock in 1965 to follow her dream to attend Wash U, where she earned her bachelor’s degree and then continued on to the Brown School for her MSW.
Jeff and Carol married in 1976. They shared a passion for helping young people, she as a pediatric social worker (first at Catholic Family Services and then at Jewish Family Services) and he as a pediatric psychologist. Together they raised Jim and Andrew from boys to outstanding men, of whom they were deservedly proud. Carol and Jeff were dedicated to each other and just missed their 50th anniversary by less than a year.
