Carol brightened our lives. She was always a joy to be near. After first meeting her and Tom it was as if we had known them all of our lives. We are so sorry for her loss.
Tom, we are sorry for your loss! Carol was such a nice and friendly woman. She will be missed in the neighborhood!
Carol (and now Tom), may you both be at peace! My sister, Kim and I, enjoyed your company during our childhood years. I am so sorry .... Debbie G
