Carol was born to An-
drew and Angeline Wentz
on Oct. 23, 1939. Carolyn
grew up on the farm with
her brothers and sisters.
She attended school, gra-
duating from Notre Dame
Academy in 1958 in Wil-
low City.
On May 31, 1961 Caro-
lyn married Clayton
Schreiber. Together, they
built a family of five chil-
dren and raised them on
Tuxedo Road in Minot.
The Catholic faith was im-
portant to her. She partici-pated in various church
activities and enjoyed
playing cards with
friends. In 2012, Carol
and Clayton moved to
Summerset. Initially, she
settled in and adapted
well. However, the last
several years of aging
were not easy on her. As
her mind and body failed,
she easily succumbed to
COVID-19. It is in the
honor of Carolyn’s
memory that family re-
quests that you wear a
mask and wash your
hands often – to protect
not only yourself but the
ones you love.
Carol was a small and
quiet woman. For many,
she could’ve been mistak-en as a mouse in the
corner; however, whatev-
er you could say about
her, she was a great
listener and strong in her
faith. She may have not
been a great conversation-alist, but she always en-
joyed being in your pres-
ence.
She is survived by: her
daughters, Colette (Arno)
Rudolph, Cheryl (Dan)
Haugen and Charlotte
Summerfeld; sons,
Charles (LaDonna)
Schreiber and Curtis
(Michelle) Schreiber; and
numerous grandchildren
and great-grandchildren.
She was preceded in
death by: her husband,
Clayton; parents, Andrew
and Angeline; and broth-
er, Pius.
