Carol had many friends and many passions. She seemed to love to connect one with the other and was joyfully generous with both. She was always accomplishing remarkable things and yet she was never too busy to stop and chat...or to support a cause, even before she was asked. She was indeed a wonder. It's hard to believe I will not see her elegant form gracing the neighborhood as she walked the dogs arm in arm with Amin or ran beside a lucky friend. As others have said, she was a light and an inspiration. I hope we will have a chance as a community to honor and celebrate hera parade, a fashion show, a wine-tasting, a bake-off, a mini-marathon...? Until then, I know that many of us are celebrating her in our hearts, wishing her peace in her journey, and sending love and gratitude to her family who shared her with us all these years.
godspeed, Carol

I remember meeting Carol at the Race for the Cure years ago. And after that, every time we would bump into each other at a race, she would always greet me like a long-lost friend. She was a warm and positive person, and she will be greatly missed. My deepest condolences to Carol's family and friends.

Carol was and will always be a true light in this world. Always positive and shining. I met Carol in 2008 when training for the Boston Marathon for Teddy’s stroke team. We also shared our love for Geneva where we had both lived. She was a true inspiration not only in her running but how she lived her life. Her positive attitude and positive words will stay with me forever. Deepest condolences to her family. God speed Wonder Woman ❤

What a wonderful tribute . I met carol at Adelphi in 1981 and she was my teammate on the xc ,track team . One thing not mentioned was she was one of the top race walkers in the country as competed a the millrose games during her college years . I lost touch but caught up with her few years ago running in Boston training for the Boston marathon. My condolences to her family and her fight and attitude should be something we all can learn from . RIP CAROL MY AU PANTHER TEAMMATE

I hope that the wonderful promise of the apostle Paul words found in 1 Thessalonians 4:14.can bring the families some comfort. Knowing that there is a future for the one we have lost in death can be so reassuring.

Carol...a shining rainbow of light who will always inspire me to smile, laugh, run (even when the weather refuses to cooperate), and spread a little (more) kindness. Deepest condolences to family and her many, many friends. Love, Jess
