Margaret Carroll
Mullen Carney
April 23, 1933 – November 20, 2020
It is with sad yet grateful hearts that we share the passing of our mother, Margaret Carroll Mullen Carney, on November 20, 2020. After a short battle with Covid, Margaret Carroll went peacefully thanks to the loving and caring medical and hospice team s at Bryn Mawr Hospital.
Her spirit lives on in her three daughters, Carroll Carney Robertson (Rusty Shaw), Susan Carney Fahey (Robert), and Resie Carney Flaherty (Pat) - aka The Carney Girls. She was a loving grandmother to Craig William (Beth) Robertson and Jefferson Carroll (Ritika) Robertson; Liam Michael, Sean Aloysius and Meghan Anne Fahey; Ian (Marcy Rosenberg ) , Heather and Meredith Flaherty . She was blessed in 2019 with her first great grandchild, Warren Carroll Robertson. She is also survived by her Godsons Richard Beston , Craig H. Robertson and Bob Dagit.
Her smile, warm hello, and caring heart will surely be remembered by all who knew her. She was a proud graduate of Sacred Heart Academy , Overbrook and Rosemont College.
Margaret Carroll was predeceased by her loving husband of 33 years, William M. Carney , Jr.; her parents, Carroll Richard Mullen , MD and Helen Dougherty Mullen ; and sister Susan Carroll Mullen.
Margaret Carroll took pride in her many years of service to St. Francis Country House , receiving the St. Francis Medal in 1988 in recognition of her many years of volunteer service, which included the founding and establishment of the St. Francis Gift Shop; Rosemont College , where in addition to years of volunteer service, she served as a Director of Alumnae Relations; Sacred Heart Academy, and Wheels Medical Transportation . She was a longtime member of the Overbrook Golf Club , and treasured her time with the "Tennis Ladies" . Her biggest source of joy and fulfillment was raising her three daughters and seeing her 8 grandchildren grow to be kind, loving and caring young adults.
