Dear Family,
Carol was a good co- worker I could always go to with questions at Ridley Lowell. I could always hear her class laughing next door to mine.
She was a wonderful neighbor to my husband Ken and his family.
It is nice to look at our wedding photos to see Earl and Carol laughing and having a good time.

Earl & Family,
I didn`t know Carol as well as I should have because my life was in another direction all those years ago. But I, like you have come to know our AWESOME God in such a real and personal way and like you I will get to know her throughout eternity AMEN! I know this time is rough, but I also know we are sustained by the master physician "Jesus". Know that your all in my prayers as well. Cherrish the memories and press on to finish the race set before you in her honor :) God Bless you all to overflowing. I regret that I didn`t see the paper until 11/27/07. Because I don`t get it. I just happened onto it at the laundrymat this morning. And I work 3rd shift so I will not be at the services either. Please foregive me.

Dear Earl and the whole family,
I had the pleasure of being hired by Carol at Ridley-Lowell; later, she became my colleague; but always my friend. Her wisdom and wit is unmatched by anyone I know. She helped me in so many ways; both professionally and personally. I loved her dearly and will miss her tremendously. She loved her family so completely; and our last conversation was about all of her beautiful grandchildren.
God Bless You All,
Lynne Radley

To the family of Carol, you won't know me, but she was one of my teachers at Ridley-Lowell in 1983. Yes, she had a big heart and sense of humor. She was one of a kind and I liked her very much. We were just about the same age, so understand each other well. I know you will all miss her and I want to say God Bless you all. Gloria(Hackett)Lamphere.
