Carol touched the lives of countless individuals during her years as a State Tested Nursing Assistant (STNA). Her career was marked by a profound dedication to helping others, showcasing her commitment to the well-being of those she cared for.

With a remarkable milestone of 2,968 days sober, Carol's journey of recovery is a powerful reminder of her strength and determination. 

Carol’s life was enriched by her deep love for family. She found joy in spending time with her three sons and cherished every moment shared with her beloved granddaughter, Lilianna. Her pride in her family was evident to all, and her selfless nature meant that she was always there for those in need, whether in small daily acts of kindness or larger gestures that left a lasting impact.

Beyond her commitment to family and care giving, Carol had a vibrant passion for music and entertainment. She could often be found listening to various genres and always eager to attend concerts that brought her joy. Carol was an avid Pittsburgh Steelers fan along with the Ohio State Buckeyes! She enjoyed watching the Hallmark Channel, she had a particular fondness for their Christmas movies, which filled her heart with warmth. Her evenings were often spent laughing along with the beloved antics of "Gossip Girl" or finding comfort in the iconic camaraderie of "The Golden Girls." These shows brought her joyful spirit and ability to cherish life's simple pleasures.
