Memories and Condolences
for Carol Weaver

Not sure what to say?





I will always remember Carol for bringing in the children to Red Lobster and sharing her wonderful Steeler stories. She was always smiling, especially when I gave them crewmember hats and made them "honorary" employees. My thoughts and prayers go out to the family.

Jim, when I heard your voice on my voice mail, I knew you had sad news to share. I immediately thought of Carol and her being gone. My heart ached, and I instantly began thinking back on what she meant to me. As you already know, she was a very kind soul and unselfishly shared her love of life, family and religion.

My sympathy to you and the children and may God watch over you.

While I didn't know Carol well, I felt like I did. She was truly a unique and interesting person. She always had a kind word for everyone and I will miss her. My prayers and thoughts go out to her family - Jim, Nancy and JT.

Carol is already greatly missed. I will never forget when I first met Aunt Carol...she ALWAYS had a kind word or a funny remark. She was truly a special person. She gave me inspiration and insight during the passing of my father and aunt. I feel her smiling down on us. Jim, Nancy and JT you are in our prayers.

Carol was my supervisor for eight years and a joy to be around. She always thoughtfully remembered birthdays and was the first to order a cake to celebrate special occasions. I'll never forget the look on her face when we accidentally got one with the wrong name and event -- but ate it anyhow.

No matter where she went on vacation, she always remembered "her girls" with a souvenir. Her optimism insired us; she was a dear friend and I feel grateful and blessed to have had her in my life since 1978.

I'm also thankful I got to visit a few times once she relocated to Ohio. I always envision her joking and laughing. Carol had such a wonderful sense of humor!

Jim, Nancy and J.T. -- Embrace and cherish your memories. She'll always be your personal angel watching over you.

Love,

Jeanne

Carol was an angel, even in her earthly body, she was always an inspriation of love and laughter. All my love and prayers go out to Jim, Nancy and JT. I know they will continue to feel her love and presence, as I still do my Mom's. And, I know those two are up there playing bridge right now!

Jim,
I am so sorry for your loss as well as your childrens. I used to work at the day care and would see carol everyday when she dropped Nancy off. I will always remember her for her thoughtfulness as well as her love for her family. I will always remember her for the love of the Steelers and the day she brought your son in and told me that he will be a member of the Steelers someday!!! Again my sympathy and I will keep you in my prayers...
