I have happy memories of Carol from our childhood and our teens. From playing together to watching each other grow up.It’s my loss not to have known the person she became as an adult.
My sympathies to my Aunt Teen, Steve, Jean, Donna and John. I wish I could be there for you now.

Carol and I were neighbors on Fulton St. for almost 23 years.  I will never have a better neighbor than she was.  We shared many talks on our front porches.  Spring would find us planting flowers in our yards (she always had a better garden then me!).  And, of course, we both loved our dogs!  I was glad to have dinner with her about 6 weeks ago.  How sad that she is gone.  My condolences to her family. Vicki Harsh

Had the pleasure to meet carol during a four month stay in the Nicu. She was one of the nicest people I ever got to meet. She helped out our little boy and us. She will be missed. our prayers go out to her family for their loss. The world has lost a great lady.

To all of Carol’s family,  I worked with Carol from the time she started working in the NICU at LGH.  Her sence of humor and her abilities to care for the babies will be greatly missed.  We often talked about our dogs because we were both dog lovers. I will also miss that friendship.

Deepest sympathy to Carol’s family. Carol was a few years younger than me. We did get to play sports together at St. Anthony’s. A good sport she was. Remembering the good times we’ve shared.
Rest in Peace,

My sympathy to all of Carol’s family and friends. I was shocked and saddened to recently hear of her illness, and was hoping to get to see her. So sorry to hear of her passing. I had the pleasure of working with Carol for a number of years. She was a great nurse, and a fun loving person to be around. I will fondly remember her, and especially our trip to Greece. Sincerely, Robin Martzall

My condolences to Carol’s mother, brothers and sisters, nieces and nephews and friends. Wish I had known Carol better. Our paths crossed several times – most recently during her last hospitalization at LGH. She was a lovely, sweet person and I pray that God will provide healing and comfort to each of you on this journey of grief.

My sincere sympathy to Carol’s family in this difficult time.  Carol will be greatly missed in the NICU where she touched the lives of many infants and thier families.  She will also be greatly missed by her friends and co-workers in the NICU. I had the priviledge of working with Carol for many years on night shift and a lot of our conversations were about our dogs.  Carol…you will be greatly missed! Until we meet again!

Sending my sincere sympathy to Carol’s family.  I worked closely with Carol the entire 11 yrs. that I spent in the NICU.  We spent many night shifts as pod mates.  We had some very good discussions about various topics, but we always came around to dogs and places to eat.  I will always remeber our trip to Woody’s and our Christmas cookie bake.  Carol will be missed by many.  RIP, “My friend, Carol”.
