    I had the privilege of knowing Carol near the end of her journey by being one of her therapists at Liberty Health and Wellness. She was a strong, funny, and loving woman, who was very proud of her family. I’m so grateful for the opportunity of knowing and working with her.

    Carol was a part of our family – I forget for how many years. She was always so sweet and quick to laugh.
    I’m wishing her family comfort and strength as you learn how to live without her in your daily lives.
    You are in my prayers-
    Patton
