IN LOVING MEMORY OF

Obituary
It's with profound sadness that we announce the passing of our beloved family member, James Luke Carroll, Sr. on June 2, 2024, at the young age of 49.
Luke was born in Greenville, TN on June 17, 1974, and was adopted 4 days later, by Rosemarie and Gary Carroll. They moved to Milwaukee, WI, where Luke grew up, and met his best friend, Maria Leibold. They became so close and were more like siblings.
He graduated from Vincent High School in Milwaukee, in 1992. Then he went on to marry Jody Rau, in May of 1997, and had three amazing kids, James II, Jasmine, and Justin. He divorced in June 2004. He met the love of his life, Ann, in 2003. They went their separate ways in 2004, and were finally reunited from 2012, until his passing.
Luke enjoyed camping, fishing, watching the Packers football team and playing pool. He could also often be found watching the "cannon" fireworks or hanging out with his kids and granddaughter. He will be remembered for the way he could laugh and light up a room and his big heart.
He is survived by his children, James II (Hunter) of Oshkosh, Jasmine (Green Bay), and Justin (Brown Deer); his siblings, Vickie, Patricia, Dorothy, Barbie, Mark and Joe; his granddaughter, Emberlynn Rosemarie; and the love of his life, Ann Kroncke (Oshkosh).He is further survived by other nieces, and nephews, aunts, uncles and cousins, best friends, Maria Leibold, Aimee Helwink, Kory Tritt, Jerome Nettekoven, and Brandon O'Brien.
He is preceded in death by his adoptive parents, Rosemarie Blaschke, Gary Carroll; his grandnephew, Nicholas Pieffle; and his nephew, Adam Austin, and close family friend, Betty "Kitty" Helwink.
Luke's Celebration of Life will be held at South Park Shelter # 4, 1300 Georgia St., Oshkosh, WI, 54902 on Thursday, June 27, 2024, from 10:00am to 9:00pm. Please feel free to bring any pictures or memories to share with the family. Luke we will miss you, until we meet again.
