So sorry to hear of Carol's passing. She was a beautiful person and so kind. She was so good to Terri when she was dating Robbie back in the day. We spent good times together with her and Bob...much ❤...

I’m sorry for your loss, Ma Pester was always such a great person and someone who l loved seeing . She was always friendly and smiling when l was a guest there- even though she knew we we up to no good ( sometimes). I think of Rob every day since he’s been gone- and seeing her at Rite Aid or in town was always a treat because it always felt like he was there with us.
She was truly “Ma Pester” to us.
