I have felt bad ever since Carol's death that I missed her wake and funeral. Carol was the Board Chair of the newly formed Family and Children's Association and I was its CEO. Together we worked hard as a team to enable this new nonprofit organization to be an effective resource for Long Island's needy and hurting population. Carol was a caring and amazing leader throughout those early days. I consider myself fortunate to have worked with this hard working, smart and witty lady in pursuit of better lives for children and families. Carol was and will always be a Long Island hero.

Ken: we were in California when I heard about Carol's passing. She was a wonderful colleague with me in the making of Family and Children's Assoc. Without her as Board President, we could not have created that fine organization for kids and families. I will always treasure her support of me as CEO and her warm friendship to Pat and myself. Our thoughts and prayers are with you and your family! Dick Dina
