Carol Radmer

Lavena "Carol" Radmer, 83, of Louisville, Kentucky, peacefully departed this world on Sunday, November 30, 2025.

Carol was a beacon of love and kindness in the lives of her family and friends. A devoted mother and grandmother, she poured her heart into her family, always making them her top priority. Known for her golden heart, Carol dedicated her time to helping others, offering support and compassion to those in need. She cherished quiet moments spent reading her Bible and found joy in shopping trips with her best friend, Annette. The bonds she created with her children and grandchildren were the treasures of her life, and her absence will be profoundly felt by all who had the privilege of knowing her.

Born on October 3, 1942, in Louisville, Kentucky, Carol was the daughter of John and Vena (Chancey) Baumgardner. She is reunited in spirit with her beloved mother, Vena Elizabeth Baumgardner, father, John Davis Baumgardner, son, Mike Greenwell as well as three brothers and three sisters who preceded her in death.

Carol's legacy lives on through her loving sons, Dennis Radmer and Carl Radmer, Jr., her cherished daughter, Demita (Larry) Burgin, along with eight grandchildren and eight great-grandchildren who brought her immense joy. She is also survived by her dear sister, Patricia Biedinger, along with many extended family and friends who will forever cherish her memory.

Family and friends are invited to celebrate Carol’s remarkable life during visitation on Saturday, December 13, 2025, from 10:00 am to 1:00 pm at Newcomer Cremations, Funerals & Receptions - Southwest Louisville Chapel (10304 Dixie Hwy).
