Daily News | Christine Carroll, cofounder of Crossing Vineyards and Winery, author, and former teacher, has died at 73
Christine Carroll, 73, of Washington Crossing, cofounder of Crossing Vineyards and Winery, eclectic entrepreneur, author, newspaper columnist, and former English teacher at Neshaminy High School, died Monday, June 5, from complications of a stroke at Massachusetts General Hospital in Boston.
Although Mrs. Carroll was an exceptional student, dedicated teacher, successful business owner, and published writer, it was her indomitable spirit, unending kindness, and abiding religious faith that family and friends admired most. Born with a serious blood clotting disorder, type 3 von Willebrand disease, Mrs. Carroll refused to let the challenges she encountered and the uncertainly of her future restrict her joy for living.
She made sure to have the medicine she needed wherever she went and knew where the local hospitals were, but she never avoided riding horses, skiing snowy slopes, and fishing and snorkeling in waters around the world. She and her husband Tom visited more than 75 countries on six continents during their 52-year marriage, and he constantly marveled at her perseverance and selfless courage.
“She never let that disease get in her way,” Tom Carroll said. “She was my superhero. We were Batman and Robin.”: “Getting out of your routine and deliberately inserting yourself into the middle of the unfamiliar can be a great way to help you open your mind. And, if you’re really lucky, it might even help you open your heart.”Advertisement
A lifelong high achiever, Mrs. Carroll finished at the top of her classes in high school and college, and she and her husband and son cofounded Crossing Vineyards and Winery in Washington Crossing in 2000. She became a certified specialist of wine through the Society of Wine Educators, served on the board of the Pennsylvania Winery Association, and advocated constantly for local wineries.
