Carol Jean Pellicciotti (Murray), 87, of Vestal, NY, entered into her eternal resting place in heaven on November 24, 2024, surrounded by her devoted and loving family. A beautiful woman full of life, love, spirituality, who sported a permanent smile on her face. Married and survived by the love of her life for 65 years, Albert. A wife, mother, family caregiver and dental hygienist alongside her twin brother, Don. She was a devout Roman Catholic who was involved at St. Vincent de Paul Blessed Sacrament Church in many ministries as well as with The Ladies of Charity. One of her greatest gifts was passing her faith to her children. She brought joy, a smile, generosity and her Irish spirit to everyone she met. Carol was predeceased by her beloved family: parents Joseph C. and Beatrice Murray; siblings Marlyn Farrell Wilson (Jerome, Ken); Barbara Kuklis (Ernie) and her fraternal twin, Dr. Donald Murray (Denise), and her in-laws, Edward and Marie Pellicciotti and special Uncle Corey Pellicciotti along with cherished Grandma Harrington who came to live with her family when "the twins" were born.
