I have lots of happy memories of working with Carol and George at the IC summer festival many years ago (waffles!). They always had a smile and a kind word to share. Between them, they raised some pretty wonderful children who grew up to be pretty wonderful adults that any parent would be proud to claim. Rest in peace, Carol.
