Elaine says
You can shed tears that she is gone
Or you can smile because she has lived
You can close your eyes and pray that she will come back
Or you can open your eyes and see all that she has left
Your heart can be empty because you can’t see her
Or you can be full of the love that you shared. (David Harkins).
Aunt Linda, we’re going to miss you so much!!! Micheal Jr, and Darlene.
My deepest condolences. Love Elaine
Louisville, Kentucky

So very sad to hear of the passing of Carol. She was such a sweet person. To know Carol was to love her. She was the funniest person I have ever met. I use to say, “Carol you missed your calling. You should have been a comedian.” She could bring joy to you on your lowest day. May God comfort and keep you.
