Amy and Eli, I am so deeply heartbroken and saddened for your loss. I loved Carol and have missed her so much lately. I apologize that I am just learning of my dear friend’s passing. I wish I could be there with you tomorrow but previously scheduled doctors appointments prohibit that. Please know that you will continue to be in my daily prayers. Ron and I love you and will be thinking of you tomorrow.
I will always remember our Friday night dinner dates, her collection of movies and music, beanie babies &. awesome selection of snacks 🙂
Over the last 20 years, she guided me, scolded me (when needed), and cared for my children as if they were her own. She treasured our family and we treasured her. Rest in Love my sweet friend.
Our thoughts and prayers are with Carol’s family. I, too, worked with Carol at Transamerica. She was always very pleasant and I could count on her to provide accurate, helpful responses to my questions.
