Carole, everyone who knew you will remember your radiant smile and contagious laughter that lit up any room. You brought so much joy and warmth into all of our lives, and we’ll miss you. I always love and admired how you could be so ferociously honest — I always knew where I stood — but you never made me feel anything less than loved. Your hugs were so genuine and comforting, and your laugh could brighten all things. You may be gone, but never truly gone — your laughter still echoes in our memories. I Never called you “Grandma,” but you were my chosen, cool Grandma — and I’ll always be grateful for the love, laughter, and memories you shared with all of us. ❤️
Love you and miss you.

I was never fortunate enough to meet Carole, but spent several years in my teens as a pen friend to Toni, a friendship that was to be rekindled some 40+ years later. I had many letters from Toni as a youngsters in which she said "I don't know the answer to that question, I'll ask my mom"! My thoughts from the UK will be with you all on Saturday.

Losing a mother is one of life's hardest sorrows. I'm so sorry for the loss of your sweet mom. She was such a kind and happy person. Please know that I'm holding you both and your families - and my sister Carla - close in my heart, and sending you all my deepest compassion and strength to help you through.

I was deeply saddened to learn of Carole’s passing. She was an exceptionally delightful, radiant, and remarkable individual. She served as an exceptional mother figure in my life, and I will cherish all the cherished memories we shared throughout the years with utmost fondness. Her laughter and giggles were truly exceptional. My deepest condolences to her family.
