So sorry to hear of your loss. My thoughts and prayers are with you at this time. Carol was a joy to be around. Have many fond memories of our Packer Football games on the road and our good times in the singles group and dances. I will cherish her friendship forever. May you find comfort in the good times you shared. God Bless.
