Dearest Carol rest in peace we will never forget the love that you gave to all the animals in need until the last moments of your life.

Carol and I have been bffs since 1964.......My life will never be the same without her........Her work with the animals.will never be forgotten...twma my sister.......

"We are each of us angels with only one wing, and we can only fly embracing each other"... 
I never met Carol but from everything I have heard and read, this angel's embrace eased the suffering and prevented the deaths of so many. Now was her time to receive her own second wing and fly to a far better place - now is our time to take up the slack that leaves and continue to embrace in her honor and tradition. I would say RIP, Carol, but I have a feeling even now you're busy helping some spirit in need so my thoughts and prayers are with your family here on Earth - for peace and healing <3

As a fellow pet rescue advocate, I am sure Carol's heart will go on in the lives of the precious animals she saved - my condolences to her family.

Carol will be missed by all of us out here in e-mail land....many of us only knew her through her rescue efforts online, but she was a special lady.....her furry friends will miss her also!  God Bless the family of this special lady!

I did not know you but as one who also loves animals, I know your heart. God bless you and yours. I am sure many grateful creatures will greet you in Heaven.

To love those who are defenseless is an ultimate act of love and bravery.  The blessings Carol brought to the animal rescue community are numerous and her legacy long.  God bless.

I only knew her by her email, as many of us in Rescue do.  We lost a good soul.

My prayers and thoughts are with Carol's family today.
She was one heck of a lady and helping all the animals were her passion.She will be greatly missed.

God be with your family and friends. The many rescued souls are waiting for you to run with them again! Many crowns await you for your "life well lived"!

Carol even though we never got to meet in person we knew each other from our networking of rescue. Run free and take care of all of our kids at the bridge. We will continue your work with animals. You will be missed.

Prayers are with Carol's family.  She was a wonderful lady with a heart of gold.  I know there are lots of happy animals loving her now just the other side of the Rainbow Bridge.  Rest peacefully, my friend.

I never met you in person Carol but we did correspond by e-mail about pets in need over the years. Your dedication to and love for all those unwanted and abandoned pets out there was greatly appreciated by everybody.

Carol was loved and will be missed very much. We shared our love for animals in need and  I will carry on our dream and know she is watching proudly. My prayers are with her family now.

Carol is  loved and missed. I shared with her our love of animals and she was an angel for them. My prayers are with her family and loved ones and all who knew who were truly blessed.

For Carol...an Angel on earth now returned to God.

My thoughts and prayers are with Carol's family. Carol was one of the passionate loving people I ever knew. God took an Angel from earth to be with him and now Carol watches over everyone she loved from Heaven.
