She loved volunteering in the church and praising the Lord. Carol retired from Le Baron Hotel as a Personal Assistant. Carol loved to paint and was an award-winning china painting artist, a volunteer with the Auxiliary of Good Samaritan Hospital, praying for others, spending time with family, laughing, and always wearing a smile on her face. She was a loving and caring person, devoted wife, mother, and friend, always thinking of others first. “To know her was to love her.”
