Carol Coe-Horrigan, 71, of Largo, Florida, went into the arms of Jesus on October 11, 2025, after a courageous battle with cancer.
Born in Waterbury, CT, and raised in a treasured farmhouse in Wolcott, she was the youngest of the "Coe Girls", daughters of Albert "Al" and Marion "Betty" Coe. Carol and her late husband, Dan, shared 49 wonderful years together and a deep love of the sea, which took them on countless adventures aboard their sailboat, Lonestar, eventually sailing from New England to Florida.
After a successful career in banking, Carol retired and devoted her time to family, friends, her community, and lovingly cared for her late husband, Dan.
Carol was preceded in death by her husband Daniel Horrigan, her parents, and her sister Dorothy Melillo. She is survived by her loving sisters Eileen (William) Jensen and Janet Coe Graham, as well as her cherished niece and nephews, great-nieces, and great-nephews.
A private memorial service will be held with family.

Dear Family,
It was with a great sense of loss when we heard of Carol's death. We wanted to let you know that you have our greatest sympathy, and our hearts are truly saddened. Carol was more than just a wonderful person; she was a friend for many years, always so kind and considerate to us that we always welcomed seeing her every opportunity. And, we know that her passing will not only leave a void in our lives, but in the hearts of all those who knew Carol. We may not understand why you left this earth so soon, or why you left before we were ready to say good-bye, but little by little, we begin to remember not just that you died, but that you lived. And that your life gave us memories too beautiful to forget. Our condolences to your family.
With kindest regards and sincere sympathy,
Zina and Henry
