CAROL DOUGLAS

1945-2022

Carol Ann Douglas of El Campo, passed away on October 3, 2022. She was born on January 17,1945, in Sealy, to the late Henry F. and Gussie Niemeyer Mazoch.

Carol was an absolute treasure to her family and a true angel. She was a very loving wife, mother, sister, an entertainer and musician. Carol loved life and lived it to the fullest. She loved to play music, sing, dance, snow ski, water ski, and spend time with her family. Family meant everything to Carol. We will miss her bright smile and kind generous soul. The world was better because she was here, and now Heaven is better because she is there. Her brother, Daniel, and her father, Henry, just regained their favorite rhythm player, and the music in Heaven just got sweeter. She will be greatly missed by all and live forever in our hearts.

Carol is survived by her husband, Barney Douglas; her daughters, Kay Lynn Pilat and husband, David, and Kristie Bacak Choate and husband James; her sons, Frank John Bacak, Jr., and wife, Michelle, and Matthew Douglas and wife, Jennifer; grandchildren, Justin Pilat, Kalob Bacak, Korey Bacak, Taylor Choate, Austin Choate, Wyatt Douglas, and Jackson Douglas; brother, Henry Mazoch, Jr.; sisters, Kathy Bartosh, and Jo Ann Marik and husband, Rick; and many nieces and nephews.
