On Sunday, January 23, 2022 Carol Anne Bonitz Loy, loving wife, mother of two, grandmother of five and great grandmother of four, passed away at the age of 74.

Carol was born on October 10, 1947 in Abington, PA to Carl and Anne (Brown) Bonitz. Carol was raised in Trevose, PA.  She attended Bensalem High School and graduated in 1965. Carol went on to marry Walter Loy and had two sons.  She worked at Boeing, Creamy Cone and Confidential Service before she got the Lord’s calling while she was a member at Long Neck Methodist Church.  She took her calling to Del-Tech and then to Wesley Theological Seminary to become a preacher. Carol went on to preach at such churches as Gumboro, Port Deposit and Princess Anne.  She retired and moved back to Long Neck and attended Long Neck Methodist Church where she began singing in the choir, helping with bible studies and women’s activity groups.

Carol was a huge NASCAR fan. She loved to sing and put smiles on faces both young and old. Carol loved the Sound of Music, where she could tell the whole movie without it being on.
