This woman was one of the strongest people I have ever laid eyes on. She waged a courageous battle against all odds and through it all Carol was constantly looking out for and caring for those around her. Her smile and her laugh were contagious. She brought love and joy to us whenever she visited. I've been honored and privileged to have been trusted and accepted as part of a most tremendously difficult time in her life and her family's lives as I brought her son to visit his Momma.
Carol will be missed more than words can ever truly express. To Cliff, David, Kurt, Connie, and Stefan, all my love to the five of you.
