CAROL FRENCH DOUGHTY

I just learned about the loss... I loved Ms. Carol so much. She was me and my twin sister's preschool teacher in 1997. We've been close with her since then. I loved writing back and forth to her. I miss her postcards and pictures. She promised me she'd come back to Los Angeles to see us graduate high school. When that day comes, I'm going to thank her for being my first teacher who taught me to be happy and carefree. Thank you Ms. Carol for being my favorite teacher. I will never forget you....

Dear Maya,
I loved your mother deeply.
The world is a better place because Carol taught hope and gave of herself to many children and touched the hearts of the lesser fortunate. She even endured a Wagner opera with me without sleeping! Carol will never be forgotten.

I became friends with Carol in the mid 90'w when she worked for LAUSD. Within minutes of meeting Carol, I knew I had discovered someone with a special gift.
I am deeply saddened by her illness and passing. My heart breaks for all of her family members. Loss is always difficult, but when it is someone like Carol, it even more so. Her family and the world has lost a treasure here on earth. I know she is guiding us all in spirit form.

Such beautiful words to describe and incredible person. Please know that we here love you all and miss Carol greatly. You are all in our thoughts and prayers and will continue to be so! Carol was such an important part of our lives that she will always be thought of and remembered for the wonderful person that she was.
Thank you for sharing her with us.
Much Love, The Carlsson Family

Dearest Paul and Polly,
It is only now, by chance, I learned of Carol's passing. I am completely shocked, as I didn't even know she was ill. My sincerest thoughts are with you & your family. I will not be able to be there for the memorial but will be in Gainesville soon afterward and will come to see you. Much love, dear friends,
Martha Ellen Davis

Polly and Paul, please know that I am thinking of you and mourn with you in the loss of your daughter. You have not lost her memory and the wonderful life you gave her and shared with her. Much love and great affection, Margaret Warrington

Carol, Sarah, and I went to Lima and state spanish conference together. We shared some great memories. She was a great positive influence on me. Her enthusiasm and encouragement have remained with me. I share your grief at her loss but I also celebrate her life.
