Carol was always the stable and wonderfully gentle and kind person in our group. I will continue to think of her when I meet other folks with gentle souls like hers. Nothing will change that.

We have lost an enormous sweetness and kindness from this world. She was both student and teacher at all times, curious always about how the world worked. Always willing to explain anything, with complete regard for her student's ability to learn and always patient. Carol, we will miss you so much.
Love, Rosemary
