I want to convey my condolances to you Tony and all your children. I was so sorry to hear of Carol's death. She was such a wonderful woman and always had a smile and a twinkle in her eye. I was always proud to say that I knew her. When the school kids (among them were my grandchildren) -they came to visit her exotic animals - I told them with excitement that I knew this fine lady and I was proud to say that. I pray for your strenth and peace to be with all of you. Judy Molloy

I wish I had the words to take away your pain. So many happy memories running around the farm with my cousins. So many animals all loved and pampered by such a tender heart. What a wonderful wife,mother,grandma and friend. She was never too busy to stop and "catch up" with me on all of the kids' activities when I'd bump into her at the grocery store. Please know how her beautiful blue eyes sparkled when she told me how all of you guys were doing. She loved you all so much! I know she's missed by many here on earth, and welcomed by all of your loved ones,(and animals she's loved-especially Shadow)in heaven. I have to think she's driving the Jeep around in heaven, and taking care of all of the animals in need. I can't think of this as "good- bye" it has to be "I'll see you later." Big hugs, Jenny

Carole's love for the animals will be missed, she was always willing to take in the orphaned squirrel, the injured raccoon or a stray turkey. She will be missed by all 2 and 4 legged animals and even more by all of us humans. She was a great lady.

Carol was one of the kindest person one could ever meet. She touched so many lives with her love for animals. In 1988 our horse had twin foals. The vet said they would die because they were to small to drink from the mother and needed special milk. Carol heard our story and supplied us with the milk and we were able to sustain the foals until they were big enough to reach mom. I will never forget her. God blessings to you.
