William Carboni Obituary

William Francis Carboni
William Francis Carboni passed peacefully on May 22nd, 2025, at the age of 79.
He was born in Ridgefield, Connecticut, to Peter Carboni and Margaret (Ryan) Carboni. He graduated from Ridgefield High School in 1963, and went on to attend Worcester Polytechnic Institute in Massachusetts, where he studied Civil Engineering.
After graduating, he married the love of his life, Charlene (Stevens) Carboni, and they moved to California, where they welcomed their daughter, Jennifer (Carboni) Murphy of St. Petersburg, Florida. He later became the proud grandfather of Kayla (Murphy) Dyer of St. Louis, Missouri, and Kyle Murphy of Newtown, Connecticut.
He spent his long career as a civil engineer and truly enjoyed his work. He loved being a grandfather and enjoyed life's simple pleasures. These included traveling in his beloved motorhome with his grandchildren, a vanilla ice cream cone, a walk with his dog, and a good book.
He is survived by his daughter, grandchildren, and sisters, Ann DeLuca of Northford, Connecticut, and Peggy McLinden and her husband, Tom, of Hilton Head, South Carolina. Bill was preceded in death by his wife, Charlene, and brother, Peter. Though only his biological family members have been listed, he was a loving father and grandfather to many of his daughter and grandchildren's friends, and will be missed by everyone who knew him.
Family and friends will be received on Saturday, June 21, 2025, from 11:00 a.m. to 1:00 p.m. at Kane Funeral Home, 25 Catoonah Street, Ridgefield. Reflections and tributes of Mr. Carboni will be offered at the conclusion of the visitation. Interment will take place privately.
Donations made, in lieu of flowers, will be used by Bill's family to honor Care Rescue LLC. For the last six months, Bill was cared for in his home by Natalie Guerrero - a compassionate nurse who not only provided care, but so much joy and comfort to Bill at the end of his life. Bill's family was given such peace of mind, knowing Natalie was caring for him, and will be contributing to helping them continue this work for other families. Donations can be mailed to Natalie Guerrero - Care Rescue LLC, 49 High Ridge Road, Danbury, CT 06810.
