Carol was an overnight stocker at WalMart on Franklin Avenue for nine years. She made many friends there and her hard work and dedication showed her love for her job. She was a loving mother, caring sister, and devoted daughter. Carol touched the lives of many people and through her illness it was returned to her tenfold. She appreciated each small gesture, whether it was a hug, a smile, a kind word and most importantly the prayers. Carol was a wonderful person that will be truly missed.
