Carol was my very first friend and my maid of honor at my wedding. There are so many special memories of us growing up in Bellwood together. Playing and running free as children. Her sweet face as a child is always in my memory. I know she struggled but her gentle heart was always there. Carol will always have a special place in my heart. Rest in peace my dear friend and know you were loved. May the lord´s face shine upon you and keep you. Amen Our deepest condolences to you Glen, Rose and to your whole Family.
