Carol leaves behind many dearly loved friends, friends that became her family with unconditional and compassionate love and a bond that will forever be cherished. She took the role of “Mama C” to several, and there will an empty place in the hearts of many, but memories to last and help us smile.

Carol worked in the textile industry until she became a full-time homemaker. She enjoyed cooking, baking, playing cards, crocheting, crafting, and spending time with friends. She loved feeding everyone as that was her expression of love. She loved the beach and being outdoors. Tending to plants with passion was her specialty. She especially loved fishing with her grandson Emorie, at the lake or at the beach.
