Carol loved to have fun and have a good time whether it was going for country drives, having a beer, playing Keno, dancing, or going to the casino.

She and Bob loved to travel. They went to beaches, visited lighthouses eating seafood (especially lobster). She wanted to go wherever Guy Fieri went. She loved shopping, decorating for Christmas, and going to Disneyland. Some places they traveled to were: Florida, Oregon, Maine, Las Vegas, Sturgis, South Dakota, and Cabo San Lucas, Mexico.

She has many special life-long friends and is partying up there in Heaven with those who went before her. Her laughter and giggles will be remembered by many and she will be greatly missed by all who knew and loved her.
