August 3, 1927 — November 3, 2020
Arthur William Carew, 93, of Louisville, Kentucky, went home to his Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ, on Tuesday, November 3, 2020. He was born on August 3, 1927 in Shelbyville, Indiana, to the late William and Ethel Carew. He proudly served in the Army and National Guard, achieving the rank of Second Lieutenant. Art graduated from Purdue University in 1956 with a Bachelor's Degree in Chemical Engineering.
Following his graduation, he began a 34 year career with General Electric working as a Design Engineer, Production Engineer and Quality Control Manager. Through his work, Art was able to travel extensively throughout Asia, Europe and South America, becoming a true world traveler.
