Roy and children, I worked with Carol for many years. Always knew her to be so sweet and kind and a great sense of humor. I loved her love of horses. God be with you all and know that you will see her again someday. Pat Pierce, Evansville

Roy, I am so sorry to hear about Carol. I didn't know her well, but will always remember her because of my wolf lamp. I still have the lamp and it is my favorite. Wishing you and your family well.
