Carol enriched my life with love, wisdom, laughter, and energy - all generously given without strings attached. She had no motive, no agenda....just herself. She was a Mom, a Gramma, a Granners, the Boss (we eventually got to boss the Boss around), the best "cooker", Tadpole's best buddy...., but more than anything she was my friend. Simply my friend. I will miss her greatly. I love you Carol - Cindy

To Hank, Kenny, Lori and the entire family,
Please know that lots of hugs and prayers are sent to all of you. Carol was such a special lady that our family has been truly blessed to have known her. She will always remain in our hearts forever. Carol always wore a pleasant smile and her caring nature was so special to all that she met. Special memories will live with us from the bowling times, to camping in the pasture, and being there to help us celebrate in so many ways. Carol's laughter was contagious. She as well as many of us loved sitting around the evening campfire in the pasture. The food that she and Hank always shared with us was so delicious. Now our daughter Katie and her husband Corey and our son Jeremy have taken up cooking trash can turkey on Thanksgiving, because they learned from our dear friends.
One thing I'm certain of is that Carol will always be with us wherever we go. That's just how she is, that caring, blessed friend and now angel. Yes, Carol we know you will continue to share your spirit, your laughter and smile around the campfire in the evenings.
Love,
Larry and Carolyn Gardner

I was truly privileged to have worked at Memorial with Carol! Although we worked in different parts of the department, our paths crossed on a regular basis.Carol always made my day, as she was one of the kindest, most caring and most positive people I have ever met. She shared with me her love of her Hank, her children, and grandchildren. We discovered that we both had a passion for cooking and exchanged recipes. Our department published a cookbook, and her recipes were the best! I still regularly make "Carol's Broccoli Salad." God knew that she had earned her angel wings, and now she is illuminating Heaven just as she did Earth.

To my wonderful Carol. You made me believe that love can truly be unconditional and that families can mean more than simply "blood relations". You were always there for Ryan Scott and I. Cheering us on, reminding me of what a good man he is. I have so many wonderful memories and so many regrets that I didn't get more time with you. My words are failing me because I can't even begin to capture your enormous spirit. You were truly the heart of this family. I know your love will always be with me as mine is with you. Just as the hole created by your passing will never be able to be filled. Rest in peace my amazing Granners.
