So sad to hear of your loss. Carol's Dad and my grandpa (Mick Sleezer) were brothers. I was researching my family tree doing Ancestry.com and found out about Carol's passing. Carol sounds like a person I would have loved to have met. Your family is in my prayers.
Sincerely, Dana (Morgan) Meyer

I loved working with Carol at Kelleys. Made my day her smile when l walked in the package store door. Before working at Kelleys she would come in with friends in the afternoon. I remember she drank gin and water. I so enjoyed visiting with Carol. She always gave me wise counsel and a good laugh. Carolyn Kitchens

I enjoyed working with Carol, through our years at Kelleys. She was one of the sweetest and kindest people you ever met but you always knew where you stood with her! I loved her like a sister and Im sorry we lost touch after I moved to OK. She will be missed❤

We are so saddened by Aunt Carol's passing. I truly wish we could be there to celebrate the life of an amazing lady who brought so much joy to everyone she met. I remember her laugh most of all; she loved a good joke. She always offered a listening ear and sage advice. We are there in spirit. We will miss her so much but know we will see her again one day. Hugs and peace to all.
