family. She also enjoyed sewing, crafting, cooking, nature and being
outside gardening. Carol attended First Baptist Church and enjoyed
serving by teaching Sunday School, Ladies Bibles Study and Vacation

Workers Roundtable for several years.

Carol is survived by her husband Don; sons Rick (Chandra) and Troy;
Daughters Robin (Jim) and Tracey (Joe); Brother Wayne (Dawn); eight
grandchildren; 14 great-grandchildren and several beloved cousins and
her extended church family. She is preceded in death by her parents Leo
