  1. Dear family. I just learned of Carols passing Oct 12, 2020. I am so sorry for your loss. She was a beautiful mother in law to me for 16yrs. And I will cherish the memories. Lucille I am so very sorry and my prayers are with you. My love is always always with you. She was a wonderful child of God and I know she is happy at home in heaven awaiting you all some glorious day. May her memory turn golden for each of you to cherish.
    God bless you all. Dan Shifflett, Sr.

  2. Dear Mario & Family,

    It was such a pleasure knowing MOM/Carol especially, for me, having the opportunity to share many years/times as members in the Legion of Mary she so loved..

    I found her to be a good listener, ready to help out in any way she could when asked; always with that beautiful “smile.”..

    Our many rides shared together on the way to St. David’s for meetings were such fun!
    Husband, Tony, would keep us amused while having ‘all the answers” on “how to straighten Legion’s problems out and get us new members.”
    She had the patience of a Saint!

    May she R.I.P.
    Rose
