I just found where Carol has passed away. Carol and my sister, Linda Sanders Junghens, used to ride horses together with two other friends. I used to babysit Carol's only child at the time. Carol was like another daughter in our family. Please know that I am so sorry with her passing. May God wrap his arms around all of you & provide comfort during this time. In 2003, Linda had come for her class reunion at Connally and we came to see Carol. Love and prayers to all of you. RIP Carol.
