Carol Fay Pounds

June 1, 1948 — December 31, 2020

Carol Fay Pounds, age 72, of Kirby, went to be with her Lord and Savior on Thursday, December 31, 2020.

She was born on June 1, 1948, in Glenwood, the daughter of Woodroe James Cogburn and Alpha Pauline “Bobby” Duggan Cogburn. On February 7, 1969, she was married to Doyle Pounds. She was preceded in death by her parents; and two nephews, Matt Turner and Jason Rhodes.

Carol worked at the Kirby High School cafeteria for over twelve years. Afterward, she started babysitting for many children in the community and she loved all of them as much as they loved her. She was a devout member of the Caney Valley Missionary Baptist Church where she taught the little children about Jesus Christ for over forty years. Carol loved caring for all children especially her grandchildren, nieces and nephews. She enjoyed her flowers and spending time with her sister and brothers.
