Wanted to express my sorrow for the loss of Carol. She was a part of my childhood as I would often see her when I spent time with my good friend Todd. My Mom Ruth recalls buying Avon from her and always enjoyed talking with Carol. We both hope you can find comfort with family and find joy in her memory.
Todd and family, My sympathy to all of you. Carol was married to my cousin, Jack. I last seen your Mom probably 5 or so years ago when she was visiting her sister and us cousins got together for lunch. She was still living in Florida then. We always enjoyed her company.
