Not sure what to say?

Thank you for always believing in me from the beginning!

When I first started my journey in 2011, no one knew me or believed in my vision! I went on Facebook and where Carol contacted me and asked me to come to her farmers market to promote my anti-bullying books. She was so kind and professional, and decided to meet up with her. She took me under her wings, and it was the start of a beautiful friendship. She would always invite me to her events, and thanks to her, I met some amazing people. She knew everyone and everyone loved her. She was a ray...

Carol was always so warm and sweet and enthusiastic about the community. I enjoyed working with her on a few projects in the past. She always kept in touch with what she was working on next. She was a light to those around her. May she rest in peace. Sending her loved ones prayers.
