She grew up in Dallas and was a proud graduate of Woodrow Wilson H.S. in 1953. She attended college at the age of 16, where after 2 years of college, she met her husband, married and moved to France due to his Air Force duty. It is there that she gave birth to her first Son, Harvey. After moving back to the states, Harvey was soon followed by Kenny, Dianna and Joe.
She stayed at home to raise her children, taught piano lessons, and entered the workforce later in life. She worked for Research Chemicals and then Ford Motor Company for many years. She was a gifted seamstress, knitter, and embroiderer. She loved roses, pandas, antique dolls, Dr. Pepper, and had a weakness for all things sweet. She had a quick wit, a wonderful sense of humor, and was fun.
Carol will be remembered as someone who embodied love. First and foremost, she loved God. She loved her family fiercely and unconditionally. She loved and cherished her friends. She loved others that she didn’t even know. She had a servant heart, and she was willing to go without in order to give to others in need. She was constantly looking for ways to serve others. Every holiday gathering usually had attendees that needed a place to go and celebrate. One of her favorite pastimes was reminiscing about her childhood and happy memories she had made with those she loved, especially her cousins. She believed that she was so blessed and loved to count her blessings.
She was preceded in death by her sons, Harvey, Kenny and Joe.
She is survived by her daughter; Dianna, her daughters- in- law; Ronnie and Diane, her grandchildren; Angela, Whitney, Kelsey, Eli and Arlo, her great-grandchildren; Vivian, Anthony, and Andrew, and her great-great-grandson, Anthony; numerous cousins and many friends.
