  10. Bryan Manley says

    I was blessed to have known Carol for 40 years. I was also Carol’s boss for a while and coached both Michael and Eric in little league. Given Carol’s candor that could have been a potential disaster but, instead, Carol was always a dear friend and someone I respected completely. I am truly going to miss her. All my love to John, Michael, and Eric as they navigate through this difficult time. Rest In Peace Carol.

    Sending my love and prayers to all of you.

    I will always cherish the memories…your beautiful wedding, the boys Christenings and long talks about life as our kids grew up, their weddings, your standing beside me when Steve and I repeated our vows, our trip to Venice and our amazing cruise to Greece, the day you cleaned my silver and critiqued my book for me, the time you took to help me find Bing cherries in May, your fabulous meals, your fierce love for your kids, the sparkle in your eyes when you talk about your grandkids. You were always there for the special times in life. I will miss you so, my friend…your laugh, your honesty. I will always hold you close to my heart. Rest In Peace knowing that you left your footprint. Love you.
