We are so blessed to have met Carol and her pack. She paired us with one of the rescues, Cloud, not long after we lost our samoyed, Woody. Carol was a wonderful person. We had a chance to bring Cloud to see Carol when we were in the area. Cloud loved the cows and was always fascinated by bovine. Carol gave a lot of love to everything she did. We love you Carol.

Carol is somebody that I will always respect because of how level headed she was and how she never came across as judgemental. She was one of the best co-workers I had while at Colgate and I'll always remember her steadfast support of my teaching.

May Carol's family and friends be comforted by God's promise to "swallow up death forever, and wipe away every tear from all faces."(Isaiah 25:8) Remembering too the promise of the Resurrection Hope for both the Unrighteous and Righteous. (Acts 24:15)
