She was an avid reader, loved going to the movies to watch Tom Cruise and her crossword puzzles. Carol was a sports fan especially baseball and her Phillies. She would sit in her recliner with a small tv on the arm watching one game while another was on the big tv. She enjoyed her summer trips to Seaside Heights and Ocean City MD.
She loved listening to music especially Elvis and Engelbert Humperdinck while enjoying some of her favorite desserts especially cream doughnuts.

We would love if everyone would wear their favorite Phillies attire at her celebration of life.
