Such a privilege to have known Carole during the past eight years when oour son Garret married Melissa. Carole was such a nice friendly lady. May she rest in peace. Our condolence to all her family. Ronnatt and Gerry Ledwith.
Dear Rich and family,
I am saddened to hear of Carole’s passing and so sorry for your loss. Carole was a sweet person and always very kind to me; even after my Epic paint spill at her(your) house all those years ago. It is a terrible club to be in, when you lose your mother. My condolences to you, your family, and your brother and sister. I know she will be missed.
As they say, “May the dirt lie lightly on her”. With love, Tom Burless & family, Abilene TX

I am so thankful that God choice you to be my Nana. I will forever be grateful for every second I was able to spend with you.

Thanks for all our lazy days and coffee dates, all the belly laughs and always causing trouble.
My heart is heavy and I miss you so much but I hope you’re up there out of pain having a smoke with Papa Dick.
Keep looking down on our crazy family.
I hope I keep making you proud.
Love you my Nana.
