A gentle & caring soul I was fortunate to befriend when we were teenagers who joined each other's church youth groups. Carol's goodness may have been equaled by some but exceeded by none. I will miss knowing she is there. Blessings & condolences to you, George. Know that you empowered & released a truly great spirit.

I worked with Carol for many years at the Pennsylvania Historical and Museum Commission. She was one of the most caring, helpful people I have ever met in my life and am grateful to have met her and known her for so long. She is one of those people who could make a friend of anyone and who never had an unkind word to say about anyone. We need more people like that in our world today and I am very sad that she has left us. My deepest condolences to all her family and friends.
