ELBERTA — Regina Caroline “Carol” (Clegg) Seibert, a member of Swift Presbyterian Church, died Jan. 8.
Carol was born in 1939 in Enterprise, Mississippi. She was the seventh child born to Pascal and Lillie Mae Clegg.
Carol married Fred Seibert III in 1964 and the two were devoted to each other until he preceded her in death in 1998.
After working at Scott Paper Co. along with Fred, they moved their family to Elberta to return to the farm that Fred’s family had built over the years. Carol became his “right-hand man,” managing the farm and household while Fred maintained his job at Scott.
Carol was a devoted mother to her daughter, Joanna Childress (Vernon), and her son, Greg (Elisa). Carol spent each day of her life ensuring they knew they were loved and supported.
Carol also leaves behind three grandchildren: Joni Reece (Ben), Frederick Seibert IV, and Lucy Grace Seibert. All of these grandchildren attended St Benedict Catholic School in Elberta, where Carol was an avid supporter through volunteering whenever she could in support of the school community.
