Carol Allen, 70, Green Bay, died peacefully, Tuesday, November 24, 2015, at a local nursing home. Born December 1, 1944, in Green Bay, she is the daughter of the late Joseph and Shirley (Zeise) Allen. Carol worked at Mrs. Karl’s Bakery and Georgia Pacific until her retirement. She was an avid baker of cookies and candy and an amazing cook; especially during the holidays when she sold 100s of her homemade candy. She was also the queen of the rummage sales and always found a deal!
