My wife Judy and I met Carol years ago through our Membership on the PA One Call Board. Carol was always very caring and treated us like family. She was especially kind to my wife, who did not know anyone else early on. Carol was passionate about her work, and was an inspiration. We will miss her greatly.

I met Carol several years ago, when I became a member of the Pennsylvania One Call Systems (POCS) Board of Directors. Carol was a pleasure to talk with and always willing to take time to talk to new Board members, as well as anyone else. The thing that I appreciated most about her was her passion for those she represented. She was a joy to be around and a valued asset to POCS as well as her constituents.

God's blessings upon her family and friends . . . for strength and peace.
