Carol was the most loving and caring person I have ever met. She would do anything for her family and friends. I am proud to say that she was my mother n law for 14 years. I love you and will miss you dearly. I am so glad that I got to spend time with you these last few months. Troy & Tiffany… alway remember that she loved you two so much.
First of all, my heartfelt condolences go out to Tiffany, Jim, Troy, and Stephanie. Thank you, Carol, for allowing me to enjoy the New York Yankees with another great Yankees fan and good friend. It was always good talking and joking with you. We not only had baseball in common, but the love of Victorian houses as well as many other common interests. I will miss you, Carol.
Though we did not see each other much you were still my Aunt and I loved you. You will be missed and i wish we would have seen you more. My prayers and thoughts go out to Tiffany and Jim, and Troy and Stephanie. Love to you all.
