My husband, who grew up with Mr. Domingue's son Carl, is out of the country, but he was so sad to hear about his death. He wants Carl and Mr. Carroll's family to know that he is so sorry he can not be there for the funeral. George wants the family and Carl to know how special Mr. Carroll was in his life.and he will miss him. I have such a clear memory of my husband, George, and Mr. Domingue chatting and laughing together outside at the Domingue's. He won't be forgotten. Priscilla Forest

I worked with Carroll at First National Bank.I remember him as a very kind good man.He was a joy to know and always pleasant to be around. He was a happy person and his sense of humor reflected that.
My sincere sympathy goes out to Clara and the family.

I was so sorry to hear about Mr. Carroll's passing away.
At the same time I have to chuckle a little bit at the commotion you know he is creating in Heaven. He sure was a character!
Now he can find his words without any trouble at all--but he will be missed.
They stopped making them like Mr. Carroll a long time ago.
My thoughts and prayers are with Ms. Clara and the rest of the family. You now have a wonderful angel to look out for you.
