After reading these entries, I wanted to write something of my own. My mom touched more lives than I could have ever imagined. We share the same sorrows in her passing and we also savor the same loving feelings toward her. My mom will always be a warm part of so many people's hearts. Although her time with us was too short, it was full. Full of laughs, games, fun, and more laughs. I will love her forever. I thank everyone for your endless support and prayer.

Dear Matt & Girls,



The news about Carole's sudden death reached our family late Sunday evening. Please add our names to the extremely long list of people whose lives she touched. Tho it's been many years since Susan, Kim, John and I left Schaumburg - we carried with us warm memories of lots of laughter - AND - loving support in our own family's time of loss. Carole was WONDERFUL.



Our hearts are with each of you.

To the Giagnorio Family,

Our son Stephen rode Carole's PHS Sp. Ed. bus last year.....and was "mad" he wasn't on her bus this year. Everyday Carole and I would wave when I would pick Stephen up after school this year.

We were so sadden to hear of her sudden passing......We will miss her bright , smiling face each afternoon. We are grateful to have known her.

Our thoughts and prayers are with you.

Dear Matt, Chris, Kim, & Lauren,



After going to Carole's wake tonight, I believe we all saw a part of Carole that we didn't know before. Like the prayer said, we each knew one, two, three pieces of the mosiac, but each piece completed the picture. I couldn't be more proud than I am today to say that Carole was my sister. How loved she was. I'm so sad to loose her, but for some reason I'm happy. I'm happy to know what I've always known, what a beautiful person she really was.



I've had her my lifetime of 47 years, for which I thank God. Whatever the plan is, she will be with all of us for the rest of our lifetimes. We will find comfort in that in the days, months, and years to come.



Know that I will be here for you if you need anything, at any time. Girls, she'd be so proud (and was so proud)of each of you. You are each so very special, just like her in your each unique way. You will not be alone.



We will share in the loss of your Mother, the memories and the laughter. I find comfort in the fact that we will one day indeed be together again.



I love you all dearly,

Auntie Linda
