She will be very missed she always had a warm smile and I loved to be in her presence. I worked with her and if anybody got a chance to know her. You felt you knew her for years for she was so easy to talk too. She was very giving. I am glad God gave me a chance to know her. She was truly an angle.

Carol & I worked together. She was a wonderful friend to me who I will miss dearly. Carol was such a giving person. It will be very hard in the days to come looking across the aisle and not seeing Carol's smiling face. My heart goes out to her family.
