I loved working with Carol at Wheeler Library! She was always a good sport and it was fun to discover that we were both Connecticut College graduates. Because of Carol's support and warmth, we had many successful children's programs during my tenure at Wheeler. I am thankful that I got to work wth her. She will be greatly missed.

Bucky & Tim So sorry to hear of carol´s passing. We go back to your families time on fishers island when steve and I worked for your father. She was a good friend as we spent time together sewing, began jogging together (she kept it up in didnt!), bike trips to vermont and setting a great example of being a mom! The world shines a bit dimmer without her. Best to all your family and hold onto those great memories, I will!

Bucky and Tim, Your Mother was a kind lady and your home was always a great place that our Tim would stay over. God bless you all during this time of grief. Jim (Tim Brink's father)

I was deeply saddened to hear about the passing of Carol. I met Carol at Wheeler Library and she was always so kind and sweet. She was always so helpful and kind. I´ll truly miss her big, welcoming smile and I´ll miss her chats about her grandchildren. She loved her grandbabies and would often share stories about them. She was a wonderful lady and it was a blessing knowing her. My deepest condolences to all her family and friends.

For woman who was my teacher and than became a friend. Thank you, Carol for a lifetime of kindness and being reason the library became a second home to us. I know my dear library friends and many will miss you way too much!! "Ode To Carol" As rare and remarkable as lightening that strikes twice in the same place, That was Carol to me. Her kindness so consistent, she blessed my life twice with her gentle ways. Once my teacher, Than my friend! How could one person be so consistent...

I have so many fond memories of Carol. She was my buddy for the Boy Scout troop as a merit badge counselor for the biking badge. I remember one 25 mile ride we did in the rain on Mother's Day. We were looking like drown rats but feeling like good mother's that day. I also remember taking an orientering course for Scouts in Niantic. She caught onto the azmuth, back azmuth stuff much quicker than I did. So many memories, costumes for the Cub Scout Halloween party, making crafts for the...

Carol and I were grade school friends at Ledyard Center School. We had so much fun together taking horseback riding lessons, trick-or-treating (Carol always had the best costume) and sleepovers. I am so sad to hear this news. My condolences to her husband and family.

This is so terribly sad. We were both theater kids at LHS, and she was always a bright light and live wire. Sincerest condolences to her family and friends.

So sorry to hear of Carol's passing. She was a welcoming face to many at Wheeler Library, always pleasant and willing to help others. Condolences to all who knew her.
