Caroline “Mike” Neville


Old Saybrook

Caroline “Mike” Neville passed away peacefully on July 28 at the age of 90. She was born in Port Chester, New York and raised in Mamaroneck and Larchmont, New York, where she married Eugene O. Neville on July 28, 1956.

Mike and Eugene moved to Old Saybrook in 1990, where she flourished in retirement. Some of her greatest loves, quilting, the Estuary, and her neighbors on the “Court” provided many friends and volunteering opportunities. Mike strongly believed in giving back. Artist of the month, and Quilts of Valor, were some of her favorite endeavors.

Mike leaves three children, Carolyn (Stephen), Kevin (Lisa), and Sharon (Michael), along with eight grandchildren, Benjamin, Samantha, Emma, Zoë, Kevin S., Kaitlin, Kathryn, and Emily, who she loved endlessly. She was predeceased by her brothers, Edward, Dudley, Harry, William, and Peter Soper. Her sister, Jane Hackett, survives in Old Saybrook.
