I always considered Carol and Cleo to be like a second set of parents. Carol always knew how to make me feel better in trying times. She was there at my time of loss, And I will never forget her for that. God bless you Carol, And God bless Cleo, Chris, Kathy, and Craig.

Cleo, Chris & Kathy and Craig-
Carol was an outstanding woman who brightened everyone's world with her laughter and her smile. She was warm, compassionate and was dear to many. We will all miss her, but Heaven is a better place because she is there.
Thinking of you,
