Carol Anne Stamm

Carol Anne Stamm, née Ealy, passed away on Sunday, June 14, 2026, surrounded by her loved ones, at The Brook in West Branch, MI, at the age of 78. Born on September 6, 1947, in Wolverine, MI, Carol lived a life marked by love, service, and a deep commitment to her family and faith.

After raising her children with great care and dedication, Carol extended her nurturing spirit to the broader community by working in childcare. That was a natural continuation of her lifelong devotion to children and babies, further exemplified by her enthusiastic volunteering in numerous youth activities. Her involvement in the United Methodist Church in Fenton, MI, where she participated actively in the ladies groups, was a reflection of her caring nature and unwavering support for her church family.

Carol was known for her loving and caring personality, which touched the lives of many. She took great joy in her hobbies, which included rock picking, crafts, sewing, gardening, and listening to music, interests that brought her much happiness throughout her life. She also cherished her visits to Davenport, Florida, a place where she found relaxation and joy.

Her greatest pride was her family. Carol loved gathering her loved ones for family reunions and celebrations, creating lasting memories filled with warmth and connection. She is survived by her children: Teresa (Sassan) Tarahomi, Marcia (Joe) Webster, Brad (Erica) Dennis, and Amanda (Mike) Williams; her stepchildren, Patti Clontz and Jeff Stamm; and her first husband, Bob Dennis. Her grandchildren, whom she adored, include Justin Tarahomi, James Tarahomi, Brandon Webster, Alexander Dennis, Payton Dennis, Easton Williams, and Simon Williams, 3 great grandchildren, alongside many step-grandchildren and great step-grandchildren who carry forward her spirit.

Carol’s loving support extended beyond her immediate family to her siblings Larry Ealy, Keith Ealy, Diana Vawter, and Debbie LeJeune, as well as an extended network of aunts, uncles, cousins, and dear friends who knew her as a steadfast and generous presence in their lives.

She was preceded in death by her son, Robert Jason Dennis; her second husband, Lloyd Stamm; her stepson, Gregg Stamm; her parents, Ernie and Marylyn (Shann) Ealy; her brothers, Charlie, Delbert, and Edward Ealy; her sister, Linda Vigder; and her grandparents, Alice and Charles Shann.

She leaves behind a legacy of kindness and devotion that will continue to inspire all who had the privilege to know her.

A graveside service will be held at Silver Lake Cemetery in Wolverine, MI on Saturday, July 18, 2026, at 12:00 p.m. with luncheon to follow.
