I didn't find out about your mom's death until months after....I still can't believe it. I wouldn't have made it through my time at Sage without seeing her everyday in Admissions. We played tricks on your Mom and she would laugh, we'd cry to your mom and she would wipe our tears away..she even brought ALL of us(Tour Guides) to your house for a family dinner! The good times we had. Know that your entire family is is my thoughts and that your mom will NEVER be forgotten.

Our lives are forever changed.. the pain of your absence will never subside, it' there every second of every day.. I find comfort in your strong faith and know you are at peace..I pray to God every day for you to come back.. we need you Mom..I love you. Wish you were here for the kids

Happy Birthday Mom. I hope it's your best birthday ever! Was just looking at picture of you blowing out your candles with Carol Melina, Angelo, Luke, Sheadon and Colin around you. God what we wouldn't do to have you back with us. We miss you terribly. We know you are at peace but every day is horrible without you. I lost my best friend. I hope you don't have a worry in the world anymore. I can't wait to be with you again. I love you Mom with my whole heart.

I just found out about Carol's passing. Heartbreaking and I am filled with tears. Carol was one reason that made Sage so special. As one of her tour guides, I looked to Carol for guidance through my college years. She never let me down. Whenever I came back to campus, Carol was always the first person that I would visit. This world will not be the same without her!
You all remain in my thoughts and prayers,

Mom it's been 7 weeks today since you went to rest. Our hearts our broken and we miss you terribly. You put all of us ahead of yourself. We are lost without you but are ok knowing you are at peace. We love you so much and words can't describe the ache in our hearts when we wake up each morning and know you are not with us. The faith in God you instilled upon us and the love we have for each other are the only things that keep us going. May you rest in peace and truly understand how much you were and are loved.

She's the first light you see when you awake each morning.
She's the soft whisper you hear when no one else is in the room.
She's the flicker of the candle that lights your darkness.
She's the warmth of the blanket that covers you.
She's the cool, gentle breeze across your face on a warm, sunny day.
She's the love that fills your heart each time you think of her.
And, she is the angel that will forever watch over you.
May God give you peace and strength as you lay her body to rest!

Dear Mark and Erin,
I am so sorry for the sudden loss of your mother. My thoughts and prayers are with your during this difficult time. In a short time, you and your siblings will see signs from your mom. My mom's signs are a humming bird in my flower garden and a red cardinal at my bird feeder. She was fond of both. Be patient and of an open mind and in time you and your siblings will notice your mom's signs as well. Please take care. With love and a hug sent your way. Pat Crupe

Carol was a dear and wonderful woman. I remember all the laughter she caused and smiles she brought to our faces at Russell Sage. She was a humble person who never complained. Instead she always found a way to help out those in need while constantly being full of joy. Carol will be truly missed. ~Christy Knapp (Galway, NY)

Dear Lansing Family,
Words can not capture my feelings upon hearing of the sudden and tragic loss of some one so dear. Carol and I spent many years working together at RSC Admissions and she was absolutely fabulous in so many ways - caring, kind, inspirational, dedicated, super-competent and personally she made "working" at Sage joyful for me and my family because she extended herself and her family to me and mine without hesitation. Heaven has a new Angel in residence. Our thoughts and prayers are with you all - Crickett, Dennis & Brianna O'Dell

To Carol's family, I was one of Carol's girls at Russell Sage, at least that's how I felt, it was how we all felt. Carol was like another mom to all of us and we knew that we could turn to her for anything. I loved seeing her at the desk when I came through the door and I know that she singlehandedly turned my day around on many many occassions. She was a strong, beautiful, loving woman and a true gift to us all. My thoughts and prayers are with you all in this difficult time.

May her memory be a blessing.
