My heartfelt sympathy goes to Carol's family and friends. I also worked with Carol at Universal Instruments. I too remember those days back in the seventies as some of my best times and Carol was a big part of that. She will be missed and not forgotten.

Carol,
I will miss you and your silly ways. I remembered you from when I was a little girl, and to meet you again at work was great. There was always something special about you. Your love for life and lack of self-pity made you a great role model. Now you have time to catch the "big ones", sitting under the shade tree by the babbling brook.
