Carol A. Kleiman

Carol Kleiman (Balchunas), 18 year resident of Venice, FL. died Sunday the 29th of May, just one week shy of her 40th wedding anniversary. Born in Elizabeth, NJ, Carol graduated from Battin High School in 1960 and resided in Linden, NJ for 37 years thereafter, where she lovingly dedicated her life to her family. Carol, a devout Roman Catholic, attended mass regularly at Our Lady of Lourdes Church in Venice. She was an avid reader and gardener, and enjoyed playing word games. Carol could often be found on one of the many dance floors in the Sarasota County area, impressing those around her with her moves. She was described by many as fun-loving, vivacious, and strong. Carol is survived by her husband, Stephen Kleiman, son Gregory Kleiman, daughter Cheri Neadle, and son-in-law, Jesse Neadle. Memorial gifts may be made to the American Cancer Society in her honor. Farley Funeral Home in Venice is handling the arrangements.
