Judy Bovee says
You would not find a kinder, sweeter neighbor than Carol. I sincerely enjoyed our laughs together and our rides around town. I will always remember Carol hiking across the street with her black trash bag and rake to help me in the yard. Carol, I know you and Ken are so happy to be together again. Rest in peace my friend.

Well it’s been a few days now, and it’s still as hard as the first! I’m missing you like crazy! Part of my heart died withwhen you did, and the other part is left here missing you! Hope you know how much I love you! You were a great mother and made me who I am today! As the tears roll down my face and I blow kisses to heaven, I know your with me… forever missing you, till we meet in heaven… love you mom!

I used to love the summers going to see Grandma Carol, Ken and the rest of the family. They treated me like blood family. Carol was so funny. Always made us kids laugh. I’m going to miss her a lot. Wish I could’ve seen her more but she knew I loved her! Fly high Grandma. Til we meet again.
Dottie says
Miss you mom! I can’t even explain the emptiness I feel right now, just knowing I can’t pick up the phone and call you! The little things that I can’t do now breaks my heart! I know your happy in heaven with all the important people there, I just want one more day, one more hour… there isn’t a day I don’t think about you! Missing you so much! A blew kisses to heaven tonight, hope you caught a few!
