Carolyn "Speedy" Lange

July 21, 1938 - May 17, 2020

Carolyn “Speedy” Lange, 81, of Saginaw Twp., our loving and devoted mother, grandmother, sister, aunt, and friend was called Home by God and her Savior, Jesus Christ, after a brief illness on Sunday, May 17, 2020 at Ascension – St. Mary’s Hospital. She was born in Bay City on July 21, 1938, the daughter of the late William and Melinda (Pickelman) Davies. Carolyn was devoted to her Christian faith and the ministry of Jimmy Swaggart. She had a place for everything, with her home always being spotless. When family or friends were struggling, she would never give up, never turn her back, and always helped in any way she could. She will be deeply missed, yet lovingly remembered for years to come. She is survived by her sister, Bonnie Gillespie; her sons, Steve and Scott Lange; her four grandchildren, whom she loved dearly: Ashley Lange, Mason Lange, Erin Lee, Samantha Pitre, and Christie Lange; great-grandchildren, Brooklyn McBride, Eden Pitre, Ada Lee, Joss Lee, Harrison Lee, Janae LaLande, Jeren LaLande, Devin Nash, Tyler Nash and her best friend Joanne Suchodolski of Pompano Beach, Florida; former daughter-in-law, Kathryn Lange, as well as many nieces and nephews. In addition to her parents, Carolyn was welcomed home to heaven by her husband, Frederick R. Lange, who preceded her in death on May 5, 1984. Private arrangements have been entrusted to Skorupski Family Funeral Home & Cremation Services (formerly Reitz-Herzberg), 1550 Midland Rd., between State & Gratiot. A memorial service will take place at a later date. In lieu of flowers, those planning an expression of sympathy may wish to make memorial contributions to the wishes of the family.
