Carol Jean Petros

Passed away on December 20, 2020, surrounded by loved ones. She had briefly battled cancer. A Celebration of Carol's Life will be held on Saturday, June 26 at 2:00 pm at the Lakeville Area Arts Center--20965 Holyoke Avenue; Lakeville, MN 55044. Dress sassy or classy in something Carol would enjoy! Carol Jean Petros was born April 7, 1950 in Slayton, MN to Clarence and Bernita (Flynn) Kirchner. Following her graduation from Fulda High School in 1968, Carol attended Southwest Minnesota State University in Marshall, MN and pursued a career in business. She spent her professional career in sales, where she won many awards, mentored numerous colleagues, and made countless friends. She married the love of her life, Ron Petros July 9, 1988. Carol's life is marked by her incredibly strong faith in God. She was deeply committed to knowing Jesus and introducing others to him. Even in the final days of her extraordinary life, she saw to it that those who needed to hear about God's grace did so. She influenced and impacted thousands of people. She faithfully walked alongside, encouraged, taught, and diligently prayed for those who crossed her path. She was a faithful, obedient servant to the lord. Her sole aim was to do what the Lord asked of her. Although she was immensely involved in several ministries she never fully realized the extent of her impact on others, which speaks to the humility that resided within her vibrant personality. Carol is survived by brothers Raymond (Carol) Kirchner, Ronald (Diane) Kirchner, Jerry (Karen) Kirchner; sisters, Judy Kremer, Joan (Wayne) Spielman. While Carol had no children of her own, she had a mother's heart. She fiercely loved and was proud of her nieces, nephews, great-nieces, and great-nephews. Carol is preceded in death by her Husband Ron Petros, parents, Clarence and Bernita Kirchner, Brother Leon Kirchner, Brother-in-law, John Kremer. Her many friends and loved ones will miss her dearly. As Carol would always say, "See you, girly bird".
