Not sure what to say?

May Carol Garibaldi rest in peace in Heaven's glory. I was fortunate to grow up in my early childhood years as a neighbor and close friend to the family. She was as her obituary so beautifully states a wonderful lady with a great smile and care for others. My condolences to Fred, John, Mike & Ann and the entire family. With Love & Respect, Scott R. McClure

Carol helped our `McKinley Elementary put on Hansel and Gretel in grade three. She did music and costumes fo us all. A church friend later.

Accept our sympathy. Whoever wrote the obituary captured to essence of the Carol I knew and loved. I will miss her greatly. I spoke with her about six weeks ago. She did not speak of herself but brought me up to date with family. She always had pictures of kids and grandkids. She loved you all so much. I will miss and cherish your mom. She was one of my blessing of God. Carol and Dick Smith from Ohio and Marco Island.

So sorry to hear. She was a great lady. I enjoyed talking with her. My condolences.

Fred and family, I am so sorry for your loss. Carol was an exceptional woman. She will be sorely missed. I will miss that beautiful smile.

Mike and the Garibaldi family, I'm sorry for your loss. I remember your mom so well from our Kensington days - such a nice lady and never complaining about noise and chaos in the rumpus room above the kitchen! I hope you are all comforted by years of great memories.

On behalf of the Bob Cooper family May I offer my deepest sympathy to Fred and the entire Garibaldi family. She loved you dearly.

I have wonderful memories of her laughter at dinners, gatherings, cook outs with either salmon Bob caught or Fred brought back from Alaska. One birthday I received a coffee mug from...

An incredible woman. Carol was like family to me and will always have a special place in my heart. Little did I know when her daughter Ann first invited me over to play at the Garibaldi house, when we were in nursery school, that I would spend countless days and nights at their home throughout my childhood. Carol always made me feel welcome. She had a sincerity about her that always made her home inviting and she never stopped thinking of others before herself. I spent a lot of my...
