  2. Carol my sisters mother in-law was a very nice person never heard a bad word about her, it very rare now a days that you find a person a giving and caring as her.

  3. Although life takes us all in different directions I’ve not forgotten what good friends we were in high school. Carol was such a kind and caring friend. Rest in peace dear Carol.

  4. I will miss seeing Carol most often at the post office. Always had a wave and a smile when driving in town. I will miss seeing “Oh Carol”.

  5. I knew Carol from the last few years of high school and, more recently, at our Lincoln grads gatherings. She was smart as can be but mostly she showed such kindness and had a winning smile. My dad, Bob Davis, worked with her through some Mechanicsville community organizations and thought so highly of her. Rest in peace, Carol.

  6. So sorry to read of Carol’s passing. I was her hairdresser for several years before I retired. I enjoyed our conversations during her appointments. She was very kind and caring. Rest in peace Carol. Sue Ellen Wooder
