She worked as an LVN, with her favorite shifts being those she spent among the new born babies. Carol’s first love and devotion was to her Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. She loved to study the Bible and was a true reflection of God’s love in her prayers and kindness to others. She was a very devoted mother and grandmother, and chose to be a homemaker as her top priority next to her relationship with the Lord. She was an avid letter writer and reader. Her favorite books were those that were written by well studied Christian authors so that she could continue to understand more about the Bible and living for God. Carol had a sense of humor and loved to spend time with her family. She loved animals and children and never knew a stranger. Her warmth and caring as a person endeared her to those who knew her. She loved and accepted everyone she knew and had a way of making people feel like everything is going to be alright. She will be sorely missed by her family and friends, but her family knows that she is with the Lord and is filled with joy in heaven.
