Carol Jurgens Lane of Hampton Bays died peacefully on October 3 at the Hamptons Center for Rehabilitation in Southampton. She was 95.

She was born on Christmas Day, 1928, in St. Albans, Queens.

As a child, she spent summers in Hampton Bays and moved there permanently in 1938. She resided in that same home until her death.

She enjoyed working in her many gardens, and was especially fond of her roses. She enjoyed watching the wild birds at her feeders, especially the hummingbirds. Her home was always decorated in a festive manner for holidays, especially for Christmas, her birthday.

She took pleasure in treating friends and family to her cooking, especially her Christmas cookies.

She was predeceased by her husband and Hampton Bays High School sweetheart, Walter; and her infant daughter Merry Lee. She is survived by her three children, Sherry Lane of Hampton Bays, Dr. Kerry J. Lane and wife Victoria of Hampton Bays, and Noel Lane and his wife Robin of North Babylon and Hampton Bays; her grandchildren Walter Alex Lane and Kristina Lane; and step-grandchildren, Rebecca Sadowski, Brian Downs and Christopher Downs.

A Mass of Christian Burial was held at St. Rosalie Roman Catholic Church. Interment took place at Sacred Heart cemetery in Southampton.
