To Carol's family -
I have such fond memories of your mother/grandmother. She and I spent many summers together, either on the farm in Idaho or at her home in the SL valley. She was a wonderful cousin. She married before me and I loved her veil. She was kind enough to lend it to me when I married. I'm sad that we didn't keep in touch but I will never lose my memories of her.
Sending my love and condolences to the family!
I had the privilege to work with Caroll for many years!
Always greeted me with a smile and a “Hey kiddo” when I walked in the door.
I loved when Archie would come to work with her just so he could be with her. The way they laughed and smiled at each other was so genuine. I know she is ecstatic to be back with him now!
Thank you Caroll! The world will miss you but we know we will see you again!
We are sorry for your loss. Peace be with your family
I knew Carol through her sister Marie. I worked at Hickory Farms for 2 Christmas season. She was a very humorous and caring person. My youngest son Brent went to pre school with Becky and Amber Johnson and thought they were both very pretty little girls. Carol made us laugh a lot and made sure we enjoyed our work time together, I remember one time when I was driving to the warehouse to work and there was Marie ,Carol, and me . It was so foggy we couldn't see where to drive and suddenly heard planes overhead and realized we almost at the airport!! it was kind of scary but we laughed over it and was late to work. Carol said we just missed our flight so we may as well go to work!! Thank you for blessing my life with your friendship. Bonnie Maddocks
