Carol was a good friend. I knew her from middle school through Junior year in high school. We lost touch when I married & moved to Texas. We had just reconnected in Jan, of this year. When we meet for lunch it was like we just picked up from where we left off. She was the same sweet,
gentile soul that I remembered from so many years prior. She will always be remembered foundly. And I know she will be greatly missed by her family & close friends. My condolences to each of you. I look forward to seeing her in heaven!!!

I'm going to miss you so much. Only an Aunt can give hugs like a Mother, keep secrets like a Sister and share the love like a Friend.

God truely blessed me as well as my family when he blessed us with Carol. Carol embraced my mother & loved us all immediately as we did her, we became family. I know God prepared a special place for Carol, she was one of the most special, honest, loving, caring, giving person I have ever known. Everything Carol did, she did from her heart with a smile on her face, I know if we could have seen Carol's heart it would have had a big smile on it! To the family, I pray for comfort for each of you & I thank you for sharing Carol with so many of us. I love you Carol!

Judy, my heart breaks for you. Carol was such a Sweetheart. She would always wave when she rode by the house. Sometimes she would pull over and talk. She always made me smile. She had such a kindness and compassion about her, as you do and your others sisters do. Carol will be truly missed. I pray God will take His loving arms and embrace all of you during this most difficult time and give you comfort and peace, to know you will one day be reunited. Know that Carol is in a much better place than we are. What a glorious reunion one day it will be. All my love to all of you. Diane

Carol was a precious sweet lady with a heart of pure love for everyone she met. Her faith and love for Jesus Christ was evident in all that she would say and so. This earthly home is only for a short period of time for now she is with our Lord and Savior in her eternal home. We are so sorry for your loss. You are in our thoughts and prayers.
