Carroll was a lifelong logger in the logging industry and loved his family along with Bluegrass music. Carroll was a great storyteller and always had everyone laughing. He will be greatly missed by all, especially his family.
Carroll was the son of the late Rev. Riley and Bertha Ball. In addition to his parents, he was preceded in death by his spouse of 30 years Jannette Hyde Ball, brother Gary Ball and daughter Carolyn Stillwell.

The family will receive friends from 1pm until 2 pm Sunday, May 16th, 2021 at Crisp Funeral home followed by a graveside service at Laurel Branch Cemetery with Rev. Robert Fraley officiating along with Mark Ball II.
The Ball family would like to thank Lincolnton Rehabilitation and Hospice of Lincoln County for their care during Carroll’s’ illness.
