Carol was a wonderful sister-in-law. She was the best "listener" and always made you feel what you had to say was important. She was a favorite aunt to our children, Renee DuRoss and Randy DuRoss. Talented, she even sewed school outfits for Renee that she treasured, and always knew the right thing to say and do. And, she and Bob opened their home to our children when they came to Colorado to visit friends, or ski. We will all miss her dearly.
