You were wonderful to our family when we moved to Palo Alto in 1961. You invited us for dinner many times, introduced us to your Foothills Club, introduced us to Dr. Joe Davis your pediatrician, you rented a house for us, and had dinner parties so that my Mom could meet people. You introduced us to Congregation Beth Am. You were loving and generous to us. We will always remember you and your love and kindness.

I will always remember Aunt Carol and Uncle Arthur for the tremendous kindness, generosity and love they gave us when we moved to Palo Alto in 1961.
Even though my mother Elaine had divorced Harold,
Arthur's brother, they embraced us with love and treated us like family. Uncle Arthur picked us up at the airport and drove us to their home for dinner.
Aunt Carol found a charming Eichler house for us to rent. She introduced us to their pediatrician, Dr. Joseph Davis. She brought us to her swimming and tennis Club, Foothills. She introduced us to Congregation Beth Am where my brother had his Bar Mitzvah. She entertained and introduced my mother to her friends.
We were new and did not know people and Aunt Carol and Uncle Arthur welcomed us with love.
We would not have made it without them.
I will never forget their and her kindness and love.

When we moved to Palo Alto in 1961, Aunt Carol and Uncle Arthur were wonderful to us. Uncle Arthur met us at the airport and drove us to their home for dinner. Aunt Carol rented a house for us and found a school for my sister. They introduced us to their pediatrician, Dr. Joe Davis and brought us to their swimming and tennis club, Foothills. They also introduced us to our Synagogue, Congregation Beth Am. We will never forget their caring, generosity and love.

Dear Alison, Richard and Marisa,
I am so very sorry to hear about Carol's death; my heart goes out to you both.
I met Carol only once but she had a lasting impression on me for her graciousness, strength and her knowledge of and sophistication in using plants and flowers.
My thoughts are with you.
