To the Carroll family, I was thinking about all of you tonight because it is New Year's Eve. My family, the Poundstones, frequently spent New Year's Eve at the Carroll home in Phillips Texas. I am named Mary Therese because my mother Pat Poundstone loved Mary Therese Carroll's name.
The Carroll family played a big part in my family's life. I cherish those memories. I hope that your family has been able to remember the good times in this holiday season.

Sending prayers and comfort to the entire Carroll family. My name is Kristin Gloner and I am the granddaughter of the late Reggie and Mary Pierce. I remember Mrs. Carroll as a sweet and loving lady. May all of your wonderful memories bring you peace and comfort in your time of sorrow and loss. May God bless you all.

December 31, 2013

Prayers and best wishes to Mrs. Carroll's husband and family. I remember the Carroll family all the way back to my 2nd Grade at St. Stephen's School. She always had a kind word for me even when I was much older and would on occasion see her at Church or out shopping or dining. She was a very special woman and will never be too far away from her family.

May your hearts be filled with wonderful memories of joyful times together as you celebrate a life well lived.
