Connie and Cristi - Kevin called me this morning and shared with me the passing of Carol. I am so sorry - she fixed my hair for many, many years and we both watched our girls grow up. It took for ever and ever for me to agree with her to cut Mindy's hair which was down to her waist at that time. I was so sad when she moved to Murfreesboro -I lost my beautician and a very good friend of many years. I lost my mom (Ruby Carlisle) April 16 at the age of 84. Always remember the time spent with her and the memories you have of her - that is something that will never be taken away from you.

Our prayers and thoughts are with you.

Connie, Cristi and family - Kevin called me this morning and shared with me the passing of Carol - I am so sorry. She fixed my hair for many, many years (even though I always would stick to the same old style) and we both watched our girls grow up. I was sad when she moved to Murfresboro - I lost my beautician and a very good friend of many years. My mom (Ruby Carlisle) passed away April 16th after a short illness at the age of 84 - I know what you are going through right now. Just remember the times you have spent with her and the memories you will always have of her -that can never be taken away from you. Our thoughts and prayers are with you.

I am saddened to learn of Carol's death. We grew up together (I a bit older) across the street on McAlpine Avenue. She was such a bright smiling positive person and I cherish our fond memories of childhood. \My condolenses to all her family.
