Carolyn Feis Savko age 88 passed away on 9/1/24. She died peacefully in her sleep due to complications from Alzheimer's disease. 

Mom was born 11/25/35 in Hastings, NE to Elmer and Hulda Feis. She attended Hastings High School before embarking on a music career in piano by attending Oberlin College and obtaining her Master's Degree from Indiana University. She met her then husband Paul in Stillwater, OK. The family moved to Newberry, SC for work where Carolyn was a piano professor. She also directed the choir at Central United Methodist Church and taught lessons privately. 

In 1977 the family moved to Arlington, TX where mom began teaching keyboard classes at UTA and also continued teaching privately at home for more than 45 years. She was involved in the choir at First Presbyterian Church, traveling to Europe twice with the Arlington Choral Society. Her passion for music is unparalleled in her devotion to her students. 

Carolyn leaves her son Chris, 2 granddaughters, and 2 great grandsons behind as she is now with God. I am certain she is singing or playing the piano in heaven watching over us all.
