Carol was a special lady who enjoyed a good time with all of us at The Gathering Place. Although she wasn't always fond of art projects, she was full of joy and laughter which was such a gift to all. Although it has been a while since spending time with her, I have great memories of this lovely gal.

I have been a volunteer at The Gathering Place for the past 5 years, and enjoyed knowing Carol as a participant there. She was always very pleasant, with a wonderful, easy laugh! It was obvious she was loved and well taken care of, as every time I'd see her, she was well dressed, hair and nails done, and she was very happy. So glad I had the opportunity to work with her. All good memories of Carol. Sending my sympathy to her family.
