I am so sorry, but this is the first I have seen of Carol's passing. Although it has been a year, I am sure she is greatly missed by her entire family. It has been years since I have seen her, but know that she was a wonderful person.

I sat with Carol at the last Holyoke High School Reunion in September. We had a wonderful conversation and she gave me no idea of the battle she was facing with cancer. I have many fond memories of her and our years at Holyoke High School. May her memory be for a blessing. Baruch Dayan Emet.
