So sorry for your loss. Thoughts and prayers to the entire family. Carol was an amazing person with a huge heart. She was so kind and amazing to both my Mother and Aunt at the Sr. Center. RIP

Cindy, Rick and family, Carol was one of the sweetest & kindest woman on the face of this earth. Anytime you seen her she had a smile on her face and and a big hug in her arms for you. Since Covid break out we haven't seen her in awhile. But that picture you put in her obituary was spot on! That smile could light up a room. May she rest in peace and please know that she is with her soul mate Jim forever and ever. They are probably dancing right now. God Bless!

Carol worked for the North Buffalo Community Development Corporation for more than 30 years. She directly impacted and improved the lives of tens of thousands of people - many of whom were seniors. The world has lost a kind soul.
