Carolyn L. (Hambrecht) Sajovic

Carolyn (Hambrecht) Sajovic passed away at David Simpson Hospice House on Thursday, May 4th, 2017, with her family by her side.

Born to the late Fred and Bettie Hambrecht, she graduated from North High School in Eastlake and went on to Dyke Business College where she received her Associates Degree in accounting.

She worked for Roy George Music & Vending for 12 years as Head Bookkeeper and then for 15 years at A. D. Sidley, Inc., as their Financial Manager and Corp. Secretary/Treasurer until the company’s closure in 2002.

Justice M. Chambers Marine Corps League Dept. #555 in Mentor.  She was also a member of St. Bede’s Catholic Church in Mentor.

Carolyn’s favorite memory was hosting her “Grandma’s Night” for ten years for all her grandchildren, who would stay up all night, playing games for silly $1 prizes, that even the oldest ones, at 14, fought to win!

She loved to go to casinos, especially Las Vegas and Hard Rock in Northfield.  She also loved to play poker with her friends and family, read, play games on the internet and do crossword puzzles.  She also crocheted countless scarves for her grandchildren and their friends.

Jacob & Tyler Mast and Logan Boggs.  She is also survived by her brother, Frederic (Gail) Hambrecht of South Carolina.  She also leaves behind her best friend, Linda Christman and her cat, Paco.

She was preceded in death by her parents, Fred and Bettie Hambrecht and her sister, Gloria Fortin.
