Carol was "old school" in the very best sense of the words. She was unbelievably hard working, kept a spotless house, and always was dressed perfectly. I never heard her say a harsh word about anyone in all the years she was my step-mom-in-law. She was a very caring woman, who took wonderful care of her late husband "Mac", who had many difficult health issues. She was a loving and generous step-mother and step-grandmother. She had amazing patience with people. Carol was fun loving, and always had a smile and a kind word for everyone. Rest in peace, lovely lady!

To the family of Ms Carol you have my deepest sympathy and I will keep your family in my prayers. Ms Carol was so sweet I spent many breaks at Walmart talking and crying with Her after the passing of my mom. She helped me through a few tough days. She will be missed by all that knew her. Rest In Peace Ms Carol.

Carol was loved by many. To know her was to love her. We were fortunate enough to have this amazing woman as a member of our family. Moe, you were lucky enough to have her as your Mom and our hearts break for you. She was always thinking of and doing for others. Her presence always brought smiles and happiness to everyone around her. We will miss her more than words can say...
