R. Carol Holland Mann

June 30, 1955 - January 21, 2021

R. Carol Mann (Holland), 65, of Toano, Virginia, peacefully returned to her heavenly home on Thursday, January 21, 2021. Carol is survived by the love of her life, her husband of 41 years, Phillip W. Mann; sons, James Carter and Eric Mann; daughter in law, Emily, granddaughter, Elsie and her granddaughter, Caroline, who is due in June. She is preceded in death by her parents, James and Melba Holland and her brother, James. Carol was born in June 1955 in Newport News, Virginia, where she grew up and later met her husband in 1979. In 1987, Carol and Phillip purchased their home in Toano to raise their family. She was truly a devoted, loving wife and mother. Carol dedicated her life to caring for others. She enjoyed every moment with her family, hosting family holidays throughout the year for decades, lovingly caring for family and friends, and taking her granddaughter on adventures during summer break. She also volunteered throughout her life with the local police department, local schools, nursing homes, her churches, and with so many other organizations. A celebration of life will be held at a later date when gatherings are safer for all. In lieu of flowers, donations can be made in her name to St. Jude.
