They went on to have 3 beautiful daughters, Stacey, Tammey, and Kimberly. Carol held many different jobs including being an Optometry Assistant, a Hairdresser and many other jobs, but the most important to her was always being a Wife, Mother, and Grandmother. Family was the most important thing to her throughout her life and she was always most proud of her family and their accomplishments. All those who met Carol immediately felt the enormous amount of love she had to give the world. Whether she was spending time with her pets, friends, or family, she always had the goal of being the life of the party and lived to have a good time and ensure that others shared in this. Carol was always a woman of faith, serving as a Sunday school teacher at Holy Cross Church and as a member of the church choir for many years. In 2022, Carol and Rick moved to Winter Haven, Florida along with their two daughters Stacey and Tammey, where she lived the rest of her golden years soaking up the sunshine. She didn't stop being busy though, she participated in a chorus group in her community and continued attending church in Winter Haven.
