I'm sorry to hear of Carol's passing. I believe my grandmother, Bernice Prucha (nee Longawa) used to help care for Carol and her sister Joan when they were children. God Bless this family and keep them always.

Carol (and sister Joan) were the big sisters I never had, thankfully my best friend brother Wally shared them. Great childhood memories at the Combith's home. Our prayers are offered for the family

We are so sad to lose our friend Carole whom we knew for over 60 years. We are thankful that Carole spent a great week with us in California just a few months ago. We will always treasure this time and our relationship to a wonderful person. Carole had a beautiful smile and was always fun to be with. We will miss her.
Our condolences to Joanna, Bill and Tom and all the grandchildren. Carole was so proud of all of you. May God heal your broken hearts!!!
