Carol passed away surrounded by the love of family and friends, leaving behind a legacy of compassion, devotion, and joy that will be cherished forever.

Carol found happiness in life's simple pleasures. She loved tending to her garden, nurturing beauty with patience and care. Some of her most treasured moments were spent by the ocean with her grandchildren, creating memories filled with laughter, wonder, and love. She also enjoyed relaxing poolside with friends, sharing stories, laughter, and the kind of companionship that enriched her life.

A devoted daughter, Carol selflessly cared for her ailing parents for many years. She considered it a privilege to provide them with comfort, dignity, and love during their later years. Her unwavering commitment to family was a reflection of her generous spirit and compassionate heart.

Carol also took great pride in her work caring for special needs children. Her patience, kindness, and dedication touched countless lives. She approached her profession with genuine love and respect, making a meaningful difference for the children and families she served.

Those who knew Carol will remember her warmth, her strength, her sense of humor, and her remarkable ability to care for others. She leaves behind a family who adored her, friends who valued her deeply, and a community made better by her presence.

May she rest in peace.
