I recently had the privilege of sitting with Carol in her townhome talking for over an hour. Her wisdom, sharp wit and love for the Lord was evident. Her presence will be very missed at Forest Hills.

Celebrating Carols life as we come alongside James and Sam. Agape, Karl and Deb
Sending our love to all of you. Carol will be missed.
I have known Carol for many years. Whenever I would see her in the community or at Forest Hills Golf Course, we had the best conversations and the greatest laughs. She was a faithful member of the Forest Hills United Methodist Church and a good friend. I will miss her presence and her laugh. Unfortunately, I will not be able to attend services for Carol because I am still in Florida. However I will remember her in my prayers. Erin Gross
I will always remember Carol and the kindness shown me 2014 and 2015, when Carol invited me to accompany her to Arizona where I stayed with her, toured, played cards, and enjoyed visiting Forest Lake church friends. What fun she showed me! I had recently lost my first husband and truly needed and appreciated her friendship and kindness.
