Carol was born on February 11th 1946 in Berea, Oh. She graduated from Chicopee High School and married Kent on February 6th 1965 in Willimansett, MA. They moved to Hialeah, FL in 1966 where they spent more than 50 years building many wonderful friendships there. She worked at the Red Cross, and as a travel agent at World Mission Tours but had found her greatest joy spending time with family and friends. One of her greatest strengths was her creativity for which many people were envious. She took a very active role in her grandchildren’s lives and came up with the very best ideas for their parties! She had a love for animals, her favorite of all were elephants. She was a beautiful example of a wife, mother, grandmother and friend and will be greatly missed by all who knew and loved her.
