Carol Ann Jacobsen

Carol Ann was one of my roommates the last two years of college at the University of Montana. During that time we both studied sociology. We were graciously hosted at the ranch in Ovando with her parents, and we were also graciously hosted by her brother Jerry's family on some of the weekends.

Carol was our neighbor and we would often see her walking her dog by our turnoff. My husband stopped to help her the day she fell and broke her hip.

Carol Ann was my cousin and she lived with my family while going to high school in Missoula 1961-1963. We were the same age and were pals. She grabbed ahold of life and didn´t let go. I have many warm and funny memories of our times together in Missoula and At the ranch in Ovando. Rest in peace my dear friend. Sharon Durrant Gordon.
