Carole Short Rodgers

My sister is missed everyday and I cherish every funny conversation and joke that we shared together. She was a comedian and a friend and above all, a guiding light in my life. My sister, Carole (with an "e") - sending you all my love.

We so miss the laughter, friendship that Carole brought to our lives everyday. She had such a zest for life and was truly a wonderful friend for many years. We enjoyed our bowling time in Bowie, our Ice Skating in Bowie while our youngest boys were with babysitters, and of course all the ball games, dinners, parties. She was a light above all the rest. Miss you everyday kiddo!

Carole, your laughter and love of life are still missing so much in my life. Love you.

I think of Carol often and the good times we had with her modeling students. I helped her with the after photography and she was always so much fun. I am so sorry for your loss and hope that you will be comforted by wonderful memories and all the lives she touched.

Dear Bill and family:

We were saddened to learn of your loss. We are recalling all the good times we had in Bowie together. Carole was one of a kind and such fun to be with.We send all of you our deepest sympathy along with our prayers. Joan & Denis Kelly

Wishing you peace and comfort at this most difficult time.
Our deepest sympathy to the Rodgers family.

Carol was the perfect example of beauty and grace and the world was a better place with her in it. May God touch the hearts of her equally beautiful, kind, and loving daughters, Dianne, Nancy, Kristi, and their families in a special way during this very difficult time.

I had the pleasure of having Carole join a bunch of friends for lunch whenever she was available. Whenever she showed up, we knew we would be in for a "fun time" because Carole always brought us some joke, some funny story, or just listening to her talk, would make it a "great time."
I'll miss her because she was the first neighbor I met when we moved down to SC from Boston. She easily slipped into my life and we remained friends for over 20 years.
To her wonderful family.....your loss is truly enormous. I know God is enjoying her company, and I will miss hers every time I think of her.
I love you Carole, and I'm so glad you passed through my life. I'm better for knowing you.

My Son ,Daughter and I will always remember the great time we had with Carole and Bill
on our visit to South Carolina. We stayed on the ocean. They showed us the
beauty of Charleston and we even tried gator tail. We had dinners together
laugh, talk and a memorable visit. We will miss her smile and humoi. Time
goes by so quickly. May she be peaceful with her parents, her brother Jim,
and her sister Rosemary.

Carole with an "e" and Rodgers with a "d", I will love and miss you forever and carry your humor and strength where ever I go.

My heart is broken--my best friend ever is not a phone call away any more.She is walking with the angels and I know that is a beautiful sight! My love to Bill, Carole Ann, Cathy and Bill(y)! Peace, Sharon

Our loss of our dear friend is heartbreaking and for you, her family, is....there are no words to express your loss. Carole always had a knack for making anyone feel special, but oh how she could make one laugh 'til your cheeks hurt. We truly will miss ya kiddo, and know this is said with much love.
And to the family, please know that all of you
are in our thought and prayers and we send this message with love.

Carole captured us with her sense of humor, and followed up with a big heart and kindness.

My deepest sympathy to the family. Carole was a pleasure to have known
She will be deeply missed.

We were heartbroken to learn of Carole's death. We have such wonderful memories of being with her at family events, especially the beach reunions. She was always a joy to be with, and we loved hearing her stories and jokes. She will be greatly missed by so many. To paraphrase A.H. Milne/Winnie the Pooh, "How lucky we were to have had something that makes saying goodbye so hard." You are all in our thoughts and prayers, and we will see you Saturday. Much love and deepest sympathy from Sallie, Bill, and Creighton
