Caryl Forselius
HAMDEN- Caryl A. Forselius, 63, passed away Friday, March 18, 2011 at the Connecticut Hospice in Branford. She was the loving companion of Robert Mark.
Caryl was born July 11, 1947 in New Haven, daughter of Evelyn Lape and the late Joseph Aiello. She was a graduate of Cheshire High School and St. Mary's Nursing School. Caryl's life commitment to caring for others and giving back to her community was evident in everything she did, including her work for the Community Dining Room in Branford; the recycling committee in Hamden; the Hamden Food Bank and Drive; and the Alzheimers' Family Support Group. She loved her time being outdoors, cooking in her kitchen, and riding Marbles at the Black Horse Stables in Bethany. She was magical to her 10 grandchildren who she filled up with love and fairy dust.
