I just now learned of the home going of sweet Carole. She was such an encouragement to my husband and I. It saddened my heart to hear of her passing.
May the Holy Spirit comfort your hearts and give you peace until you see her again.

i AM SO SORRY TO HEAR ABOUT CAROLE JUST TALKED TO LIZ TODAY AND FOUND OUT IT MUST TO HAVE BEEN A ALLSOME REUNION IN HEAVEN WHEN SHE ALL HER FAMILY AGAIN LOVE YOU GUYS PAULINE
I worked with Carole at the Food City Gas N Go for several years during a time of hardship in my life. She was such a tremendous encouragement to me. We had great times together talking about our faith, our families, and our great concern for our nation. I loved her dearly and will forever miss her! Our world has lost a precious soul and will be the lesser for it. My deepest condolences go out to her family...you were her heart!
Jenny and Marty and family it is with a heavy heart that I heard about the homegoing of Carole.
She was my friend and colleague for so many years. Carole and I shared our families, our faith and interests for so long. Remember when Leah was your counselor at 4H camp when you were a youngster Jenny. Carole always had a faith and joy that was contagious.
She loved her Lord, her children, her grands, her Momma and siblings, as well as, her friends with unconditional love. When I moved to the Nashville area we lost touch with one another, but I thought of her often. My prayers are with you, her family for the comfort that can only come from our Jesus for precious memories and the eventual reunion in heaven. Love and blessings, Jane
I am so sorry for your loss, Carole was an awesome person. We have known each other all our lives and went to school together, also have kept in touch all these years. My friend I sure am going to miss you and the phone calls to solve the worlds problems. You always put others first rather than yourself and you sure did love your family and so proud of each one of them. I will miss you till we meet again.
I’m so sorry for your loss and will pray for comfort and peace for you and your family.
Jennifer, I’m so sorry for your loss. Cherish the wonderful memories and the love you all shared. You will see her again. ❤️❤️
I was shocked when I learned of Carole's passing. I pray for peace and comfort for all the family and friends.
Sending love and prayers to Carole’s family and many friends.

I am so sorry for the loss of your mom! She was very young. I'm confident that with the fine young man she raised (Marty), there has been a very special place in Heaven set aside for her. Again, we're very sorry for the loss of your mother. Mark and Family

Tears came to my eyes when I read of Carol’s passing. We all grew up together, went to school together. We talked on Facebook and enjoyed seeing each other when she was back home in Hayesville. My prayers are with the family during this difficult time. She will be missed.
I only knew Carol for a short time but found her to be a lovely and caring lady. Sympathy to her family and praying for God's peace to comfort you during this sad time.

I'm so sorry Jen. Your momma was the sweetest little lady. I know you loved her so much. Prayers for your family.
My dear momma and my very best friend. Words fail me at times. That’s a shocker, I know. I’m not sure what I did to deserve to have you for my mother, but I sure got the best, most selfless mother that’s ever been or ever will be. Mom, you taught me so much but most of all you made sure you taught me about Jesus. You made 100% certain your children knew and (accepted) Christ. It was one of the things you were most proud of. Both of your children have a home in Heaven. I hate we couldn’t all go together. Until I get to join you, I’ll live everyday doing the things you taught me. How to be good, selfless, caring, charitable, a good mom and wife and an even better Lolli (Grandmomma)! We had so many great times and trips together. I will hold those memories and pictures so close! I’ll continue to make more happy memories, just like you wanted me to do. I’ll continue to fight for what’s right and let go of the small things in life. I’ll be slow to anger and quick to forgive and love. Most of all, I’ll make sure to smile big everyday and give all I can give to make this world a little brighter, just like you did momma! You were one in a million! I love you more than love!

I cried when I heard because her and her Family was family to us, we all grew up together and the memories are great ones. I know Carol is a Child of God. Carol was a light that shined brightly to others. And she fought the fight, she kept the faith, and now she is with Jesus. How much better can you get.
