Carol was a smiling face I recognized as one who championed for children. I didn't know her well, but I know her smile and her heart. The people and causes she loved will miss her deeply.

A dear, dear person who I knew as Carol Chatfield many years ago. She touched my heart and soul then and continues to do so today.

I had the privilege of working with Carol in her kindergarten class as her T.A. for several years. She was a great teacher; creative, enthusiastic, totally devoted, making each student feel special. A beautiful lady who made a big impact during her life.

My daughter Jaime was so blessed to have had her as a teacher for 3 years. Carol not only touched our lives , she made a difference in the communities that she lived in. From teaching us to love and respect the earth and each other, to teaching us when it was time to get up on our soapboxes and shout at the world for something we believed in. Her legacey lies in those she taught and the world is a better place for it.
