Guestbook

  1. So sorry to hear of Carol’s passing. My thoughts and prayers are with her family. She will be missed by many and especially by those of us in the Friends of the Library.

  2. So sorry to hear of Carol’s passing while we were away. She was a very dedicated, hard working and caring member of McDonald’s Chapel, where I served as pastor from 2011 to 2021. We never had to guess what she was thinking, but it was always with the church’s best interest in mind. She will be missed dearly by both her family and her church family. But we are glad for the life she lived on earth and for the life she now lives in heaven.

  3. So very sorry to learn of Carol’s passing. She was indeed an incredibly bright lady who carried herself gracefully. Her love for her family and commitment to her faith was evident from her words and actions. My good fortune to have known and worked with her. Deepest condolences.
