Carol Laskey

Carol A. Laskey, 75, of Hermitage, passed away after a long, courageous battle on Wednesday, September 16, 2026, in UPMC Horizon Hospital, Farrell.

Mrs. Laskey was born on November 10, 1950, in Syracuse, NY, a daughter of Guy and Earleen (Ramsey) McCracken. She was a 1968 graduate of Beaver (PA) High School and earned her bachelor’s degree from Wooster (OH) College. Later, she received her master’s degree from Slippery Rock University.

Carol was a true and compassionate therapist and was a go-to for many clients, family members and students. She worked as a therapist at Associates in Counseling and Child Guidance (ACCG) in Sharon. Additionally, she was employed by the Sharon School District.

A sports fan, she loved to cheer on her boys. Even after, she kept up with local and Pittsburgh sports teams. She also found joy in reading and shopping.

Her husband of 36 years, Steven M. Laskey, whom she married on March 10, 1990, passed away on April 4, 2026.
