Mrs Wigfield was my music teacher at LCA and LVCHS. I learned music and the saxophone from her. I now lead music at our church and my son plays the same sax I did. Thanks Mrs Wigfield! Praying for God's peace to be with the family.

Dearest Ed and Family,
Your Outer Banks family is so sad for your/our loss. Carol touched the lives of so many with her friendship, her talents, her kindness, and her love. Her faith and her trust in the Lord was so great! She was never fearful, always putting herself in God's hands. An amazing, strong Christian to be admired. Our hearts are breaking for all of you. We loved her so much too. I am so sorry we cannot be there in person for Carol's services. Know that we are there, prayerfully in spirit. Sending love and deepest sympathy.

Although we didn't have much time to get to know Carol, the times we did speak showed her love of family, animals, flowers and life. She was a joy to see and know if even for a short time. Eternity will prove to be much more enlightening. Love, Barb and Bob Daneker
