Carol A. Lakatua of North Oaks, MN (recently residing in New Prague, MN) – passed away November 11, 2017 – at the age of 74.
She courageously battled Lewy Body and Alzheimer’s dementia during her last years of life, quietly finding peaceful rest in her final days. She will be greatly missed.
Her family and friends will long remember Carol’s zest for all games, and her exuberant laughter of a wellmade play.
