"Toots" Carberry, nee Burhite, 91, formerly of Wisconsin, Chicago , Schaumburg and Huntley; wife of the late Donald; mother of Karen (Brian) Kathan, Michael (Pattie) and the late Dennis; mother in law of Donna Carberry; grandmother of Erin (Ray) Arceo, Andy Carberry, Peter (Krissy) Carberry, Joey (Mariela) Carberry, Ryan Ellison, Chris (Jillian) Kathan, Meaghan (Adam) Carberry, Patrick (Katie) Kathan and Sean Carberry; great grandmother of Peyton Carberry, Holden and Brennan Carberry, Henry and Emily Carberry and Sylar Carberry. Toots lived life to the fullest. Her amazing sense of humor, non judgemental attitude and positive outlook on life made people, both young and old want to be around her. She enjoyed going to the casinos, camping and playing cards. Most of all, however, her family is what meant the world to her. They helped keep her young and she kept them smiling.
