Born June 22, 1922 in Westminster, SC to the late Henry and Eva Cain Carroll, he grew up in the Oakway Community and was a longtime member of Shiloh Baptist Church.

You may have seen him on the bench outside McDonald’s at Wal-Mart.

Better known to family and those who loved him as Pop, he is survived by his son Tom (Linda), grandsons Tracey (Regina) and Chad (Shena), and great-grandson Todd (fiancé MaKayla Burton) all of Westminster, SC.

In addition to his parents and wife, he was preceded in death by an infant son, Jackie Carroll and seven brothers, Levis, Cliff, Oscar, Hubert, Roy, Jay, and Earnest Carroll; and two sisters, Annie Bell Williams and Grace Watkins.
