My deepest heartfelt condolences as well as a wish for a celebration of her life as I found her to be a phenomenal woman. I was blessed enough to be involved in her care and support with hospice. Both Carol and you all as her family were amazing and special to meet and know. She is the spirit behind everything and will never be forgotten but just as the Sound of Music was her favorite she is still as bright as the soundtrack she loved so much!!! ♥️♥️

I first met Carol in the early 1960s. She was always the sweetest, kindest person I’ve ever met. You never saw her out of sorts. Always kind words and encouragement.
With everything going on the last few years that never changed. Always positive and upbeat. I always looked forward to her calls and calling her. Always brightened my day.
We have truly lost a wonderful person.

Jim, Dawn, Jim and Heath,
We are so saddened for all of you and your Family. Carol was such a truly Special Person and Loved by all❣️ Carol’s kind loving spirit, thoughtful ways and beautiful voice were her Hallmark. Her Family was so close and dear to her. We, as a family, shared so many wonderful times with Carol and Jim at our newly formed Mallets Bay Congregational Church in Vermont as we grew from the mid 80s through the 90s. It proved to be such a cherished time in our Family’s formation and life. Fun and action packed times with Carol at the Church and youth trips where we shared so many fun, laughable moments and challenging times! Carol holds a special place within our Family and its Life.
Our Loving Thoughts are with your entire Family❣️
With Our Love Always,
Claudia and Michael Cabral

I was sad to hear the news of Carol's passing. I always enjoyed my conversations with her before and after church. Whether it was a recent movie she had seen or to discuss recent events. I always enjoyed hearing her sing and lead us in the morning hymns. God Bless her and may she rest in peace.

I remember Carol always singing whether she was in the office or in the nursery school wing. Such a beautiful angelic voice. Heaven has another angel.

Carol and I worked together at Community Nursery School in Verona, NJ. Jim was the Pastor at the First Congregational Church at the time. We shared many wonderful years teaching preschoolers. I especially remember the holiday concerts, and many activities we shared there.
My deepest condolences to her family. May the memories you shared help you through this difficult time.
I’ll always remember Carol’s happy smile and beautiful voice.

I met Carol in 1962 when she came to spend the summer with us in Easton before her senior year at Elmhurst College. It seemed we immediately became sisters!
She was always smiling and helpful. We made humpty dumpdies, made drapes, traveled all over in Jim's Corvair.
She helped me during my freshmen year at Millersville. She baked a lot, made her own pizza which my family enjoys to this day!
We traveled to Italy and Britian. We camped together. Our kids played together.
We played bridge plus many other games.
We talked all the time when together and when far away. Then we started texting. . She was always checking in to see how I was doing and always made me feel better by her call, text, call.
I will miss her. My sister. Our relationship was exceptional and I shall be lost. ❤️

Carol was a very special lady. Strong, always positive, always happy and caring. I will miss that lovely and loving smile! She loved her family and appreciated all God had done, for and with her.

Carol was my P.E.O. sister and we did many activities together to support our chapter. Our friendship went beyond the organization. We had interests and experiences in common and as our husbands became ill, we were in contact often to support one another. Our grandchildren were our pride and joy and we attended their recitals together. Recently, Carol travelled to Gettysburg College with me to attend my Granddaughter's senior recital. We also had plans to attend Walnut Street musicals together this year. I was the driver when she gave reports to P.E.O. chapters after she attended the International Convention. What fun we had planning the programs for our P.E.O. chapter. She was such a dear friend. I knew she was ill but she lived fully up to the very end and it's hard to imagine that she is gone. Thank goodness for all of the memories. Barbara Duffy

Joy, Jim, Dawn, Samantha, Debbie, Carol, and Jim celebrate Jim’s 70th, after a very hot day of moving a 6th-floor walkup and Jim and Jim doing the lions’ share. Carol made the day brighter and kept us positive and even laughing during a hard but very good day :)

Carol was always so cheerful and helpful. We were on the board of Chorale, on committees together and spent time together away from the group. I considered her a great friend and confidant. We were solo buddies in the last concert. Her positive attitude and love of life was contagious.
