A sad year for the Guertin family, and my condolences to them as well as the Perron family. I had the pleasure of growing up with the Guertin's and to know "Crazy Carrol". In fact, I am one of the people who started the Crazy Carrol moniker as a child in the 1980's. I am sure she is in heaven with her recently deceased daughter Kerry. 2020 has been a tragic year for the Guertins, and here's hoping for better times ahead. Carrol will be missed by many. Her infectious laugh brought many smiles to my face growing up. My thought and prayers go out to all who knew Carrol. RIP.

Kerry, Michael, Gregory and families, and Perron family, my dad and I extend our deepest sympathy for your loss. We were your neighbors on Coolidge Avenue while you were very young. We haven't seen Carol in a long time, but will always remember her. You are in our thoughts and prayers.

Carol and grew up in the same neighborhood and were in the same grade in school. We used to walk to school together. My condolences to the Guertin and Perron families. May her memory be eternal.
