Waterville - Carole Pooler, 72, passed away on July 12, 2016 at her home in Waterville peacefully with her family by her side. She was born in Waterville on September 2, 1943, the daughter of Noella Rossignol. Carole was educated in the Waterville school system. She graduated from Waterville High School.

Carole was a devoted wife, mother, grandmother, daughter and friend. She loved going to the beach, playing beano, and loved fishing with her husband Roger and grandchildren Nicholas and Jayme.
