Carol Joan Boger, 78, of Gloversville, New York,
died on Friday, October 29, 2021 at her home with
her family by her side.
Carol was born on December 19, 1942 in North Arlington,
New Jersey, a daughter of Walter and Elizabeth
(Rutzler) Lewis. She graduated from Queen
of Peace Roman Catholic High School and later
earned her BA in Nursing from Hackensack Medical
School. After earning her degree, she was employed
as an RN by Nathan Littauer Hospital of Gloversville,
and worked in nursing for 50 years.
When Carol wasn’t at work, she enjoyed gardening,
reading and loved to go shopping, even if it was
just window shopping. She also enjoyed visiting the
casino, both in Atlantic City, and at Turning Stone,
but her biggest love was spending time with her
grandchildren. Watching them play baseball, dancing,
lacrosse, football, swimming, basketball and
soccer always made her smile with pride.
Carol is survived by her children: Karen (Steven
Jarosz) Schechter, Kathleen (Dragan) Konakov, Kenneth
(Victoria) Boger and Kevin (Stephanie) Boger;
her grandchildren: Brittany Morgan, Michelle Morgan,
Joshua Schechter, Samara Schechter, Kenneth
Boger, Jr., Kevin Boger, Jr., Matthew Konakov, Ryan
Konakov, and Katelyn Boger; her sister: Elizabeth
DeLuca; and Hubert A. Boger, Jr., the father of her
children.
She was predeceased by her parents, and her sister
Gayle Link.
Carol’s services will be private, at the convenience
of her family. A celebration of life will be planned
for the spring.
Memorial contributions may be made in memory
of Carol to the Alzheimer’s Association of Northeastern
New York, 4 Pine West Plaza, Suite 405 Albany,
