Born on February 11, 1947, Carol was the beloved daughter of J.E. and Odie Jones. She was a mother and a housewife whom helped her husband with whatever he was doing, from hauling pulpwood to building thigs. They were inseparable. This past year and a half were extremely difficult being left behind by the love of her life, Roy. She was very outspoken, in a good way. She loved her family immensely and would do anything for them and to protect them.

Carol enjoyed sitting on the front porch drinking coffee with her husband Roy and her family. She liked seeing her roses bloom and watching the birds and hummingbirds eat. One of her favorite past times was playing rummy with family after church on Sunday afternoons on the porch. She also loved playing fetch with her fur baby, Trixie.

Those left to cherish her memory is her daughter, Jeanette Coolman, Son Roy (R.J.) Coolman, Jr. and daughter-in-law Danelli Coolman of St. Maurice and her son Norman Coolman and daughter-in-law Janet Coolman of Natchitoches. Grandchildren Heather Nicole Coolman, whom she referred to fondly as her Baby Heart, Danielle (Kyle), Austin, William, John (Kelsey) and Megan. Great Grandchildren Bailey, Ethan, Sawyer, Camden and Ezra. She is also survived by one brother, Ralph Eugene Jones and her Fur Baby, Trixie.

She was preceded in death by her parents, her husband Roy, a son David Lee Coolman, a granddaughter Searra O’Neal and a brother James Roy Jones.

Carol will forever be loved and greatly missed but never forgotten. Her memory will continue to live on in the hearts of family and friends.

A graveside service is scheduled for Sunday, June 14, 2026 at 2pm in the St. Maurice Cemetery in St. Maurice, LA with Bro. Kevin Collier officiating and Mrs. Lottie Collier leading the music.
