Wendy Carroll

We first met Wendy when, at the end of her work day in November 2011, we drove into the Brooklin Boatyard parking lot. Wendy stopped her car and greeted us. Upon learning that we were scouting possibilities for a mooring for the next summer, she gave us a tour of the docks and invited us to return in the morning for a full boatyard tour. We have been BBY customers since. What an ambassador she was for the boatyard. We subsequently purchased a home in Sedgwick Village where we treasured greeting Wendy frequently and stopping to chat. She was a very good friend and neighbor to us. We will miss Wendy greatly and send our condolences to her daughters and grandchildren and to her co- workers at BBY.

Am so sorry to hear about Wendy's passing. As a Brooklin Boat Yard customer, I can only reiterate what I am sure you have heard before, that her presence will be sorely missed. Always welcoming, a distinctive humorous twinkle in her eye and at the corners of her mouth - that was Wendy. Please accept my deepest condolences on your loss....

You will be surely missed. Sorry we didn't have more time to talk and share grandchildren stories. Miss you Wendy

There's a big empty space in the neighborhood without Wendy. We will miss her warm smile. Our thoughts are with Jamie,Heidi,and Ashley. betsy&dick coakley sedgwick

I will never forget some very memorable times we shared together. Lots of laughs, and of course, food! Comforting hugs being sent to you three wonderful girls!

What a terrible loss for the entire "gang", and of course the family she loved so much. Cuac summed it up totally! She will always be with us.

As I said to three other friends of Wendy's in an email yesterday -Peg Gilman, Gordon Garron, and Jimmy Sawyer (who are in this photo with Wendy, along with Tom Snapp and myself) - seeing the obituary made Wendy's passing all the more real. Since learning of the gutwrenchingly sad news, I have said to my wife, over and over and over again:

"I just can't believe that Wendy's gone."

Indeed, things will never be the same again . . . for any of us. The bond of deep and lasting lifelong friendship forged between Wendy and these friends during the formative years of our youth is something that is special beyond words to me - as I know it was to Wendy.

With extreme empathy going out to all of Wendy's family members and a heavy, heavy heart; yet also heartfelt gratitude to God for permitting me the tremendous privilege of having had the wonderful soul who was, and is, Wendy Lee Chapman Carroll, as my dear and cherished friend,

The glow of a candle remains when your eyes close. As will Wendy's glow be for all who knew & loved her.

Broken heart for your lost friend. Our thoughts & prayers are with you from the S/V Marjorie.

I knew Wendy only briefly, through the Boatyard.Always with a ready smile, she added a unique spark to the office.

Jaime, Heidi, Ashley,
We are very sorry to hear of your loss. You're in our thoughts and prayers.
