Carol Lynn Hanchette

Dear Carol, You will be remembered by many of us for a very very long time! We miss you so much. I am so fortunate to have you as my colleague. Thanks so much for your kind inspirations, advice and care for everyone. I am so proud of having you as my colleague, mentor and friend!

Carol will be missed deeply in our medical and health geography community. My sincere thoughts and prayers go out to Carol's family and her colleagues and students in the Department of Geography and Geosciences.

Dear Family of Carol,
I do not know any of you but do remember Carol well from her days at Catawba College in Salisbury, N.C.. I am so sorry for the sudden and too soon loss of your mother. My memories of Carol are of a sparkly eyed and vivacious brunette. Outspoken in her thoughts but not confrontational. Full of life and from the online information I have read, still full of adventure until the end. As part of our anthropolgy group we were often in the field together. Carol was...

So sorry to learn of the passing of Carol. Please know you are in our thoughts and prayers. Edith and Stan Conyers, Garner, NC.

I will always be thankful to have had the best mentor anyone could ask for and that was Carol. She was not only a boss but an extremely good friend. She taught me a lot and try to pass what I have learned through her to others.

I got to know Carol when she worked with me at RTI. We often moved from talking about work to intense conversations about the rest of life. I have wonderful memories of her scientific skill, her passion for a life well lived, and her love for her children.

I am especially grateful to Carol for guiding me to the research field of medical geography. Over the last three years we had collaborated very well on a research project and i have learned many things from Carol - her dedication, fearlessness, and her passion. She had inspired so many people! I am so proud of being Carol's colleague, collaborator and friend. She will be greatly missed!

Carol was an exceptional colleague. Her contributions to the Department of Geography and Geoscience as well as the College of Arts and Sciences at the University of Louisville were extensive. She will be missed by us all.
