Carol was a loving and compassionate person who lived for her family and friends. Most of all she loved and adored her children, with a special light toward her grandchildren and great-grandchildren. If you were lucky enough to be present when she gazed into their faces, the pure joy radiating from her would blind you. Carol wanted nothing more for them than to have a wonderful life.
