Carol had a big personality and a zest for life. She truly brought that extra sparkle to every situation. With Carol, there was never a dull moment. She made every day a fun one, always showcasing her wit, humor, and unconditional love. She was a fantastic storyteller, and she formed deep connections with every person she knew. Her incredible outlook on life and ability to love deeply without limitations will be forever missed.
Carol was known as being everyone’s Mom or Grandma, opening her arms to so many people throughout her life.

We will miss our “after daily mass” visits. Each time Your Mom would walk up the aisle to receive The Eucharist, I was always struck by her beauty. In particular on Monday, I looked up from my prayer and she was right before my eyes. I thought, wow- she just radiates pure love and joy!
She was so very special, and my heart has been so sad this week not seeing her at mass. But I have had such a wonderful feeling each time I have offered prayers for your Mom during these Holy Days.
May her soul rejoice in God Our Savior! May she be rewarded for her faithfulness in the life she lived here on earth. She was a beautiful example of faith being lived out fully in all circumstances in this life.
Continued prayers and our love,
Katie Teddy Caroline Elizabeth Adelaide Teddy and Bennett ❤️
To a loving, funny, and caring friend I had the pleasure of working with at the Rusty Nail. I will surely miss her. Till we meet again.
We are heartbroken that we won’t be able to visit with her when we are back in Pittsburgh. We will also miss our holiday and regular calls. Carol was more like a sister than a cousin. She was a beautiful person and so kind-hearted. She’s missed already. All of you are in our thoughts and prayers. We are here when you need us. Love to all of you!
My Deepest Sympathy to Laurie & family
For our loss .
May this Beautiful , loving & caring Lady
Rest In Peace .
GOD BLESS ALL

Aunt Carol was such a special person and there is a hole in my heart knowing I’ll never be able to talk to her again. My prayers are with all of you. I’m a phone call away if you need anything. Love you all.
It was such an honor to have known you. We will cherish all of our memories that we made at the countless Thanksgiving and Easter dinners. You will be missed dearly.
