I first met Carol on a job interview dressed as a "biker chick" on halloween in 1999. She took a chance and hired me to be on her team at URS. I learned so much from Carol....but she also was very supportive to me and my family during some very challenging times. She helped me to mature and see what things were possible. I am so grateful for her presence in my life. May the God of all comfort continue to grant your family strength and peace. -Lisa LeNoir

I had the pleasure of working with Carol for about 6-7 years. Her office was a refuge that I would visit often. It was her laugh that drew people to her and her kindness that made them stay. My thoughts are with her family and close friends. May your memories give you comfort.

I worked with Carol for around a decade. She was always willing to explain and teach. She was a bright personality in the office. There are many of us still using the things we learned from Carol.

I am so sad to learn of Carol's passing. We were Jonestown neighbors, and I have many memories of growing up with Carol. I would go to her house or she would come to mine just to spend time together. She was a great classmate as well from the great Lincolnview class of 1969. She will be missed and remembered.
