Carol knew Christ as her Lord and Savior and the people in her life were blessed to both express and receive God’s love as they spent time with her in person or by phone. Carol was a good listener and often expressed her gratitude for help given. Hugs were always welcome. Even in the midst of pain, Carol would often express compassion for a sleepy dear friend, and remind her to call and let her know she had gotten home safely from their weekly visit.

Carol enjoyed Bible study, phone calls, visits and cards, watching Hallmark and home improvement shows, and playing games. Listening to music while watching the birds in the bird feeder outside her window made her smile.

Celebration of Carol’s life will be held at a later date to enable friends and family to gather.
