Carol was my cousin; her Mother was my Mom’s sister. I’ll always remember Carol when I last saw her, 6 years ago when my Mom died. Carol was beautiful and to me so elegant and refined. And oh, that beautiful silver hair. My sincere sympathies to the family. Cathy Vancik, Santa Rosa, CA
Carol graced us with beauty and elegance. She and Jack will now hold hands in the beauty of a garden forever. God Bless Carmela Castle
