Carol and Carveth raised four children together, and she absolutely loved being a mother and a wife. Family was most important to her. She enjoyed spending time and traveling with her grandchildren, and was able to enjoy her three great grandchildren. She loved cooking, and playing games with family and was the best at cards and dominoes. She was an avid Ohio State fan and that excitement spread throughout the entire family.
