He loved his God, his family, his country, and he loved you!
I met him just briefly in a Church in Venice. i felt the presence of God, when I shook his hand. I wanted to know him, his wife and family better. He lives on in his son Ron and his other children. What a blessing to meet this wonderful man.
Roxanne – I can’t believe I’m just finding out that you lost your precious husband. My heart just breaks for you. You’re right – grief sucks – but I know that God is faithful and joy DOES come in the morning!
My Sister and I knew Carol well. He was a Loving and kind Man. He was a lot like his Mother Virgie.
Carol, will be missed very much by all who knew him.
Sincerely

Dear Teresa,Mike,Ronald && Chris,
I just heard of your father’s passing. I am so sorry. He was such a sweet, sweet man. I will miss him terribly. I would see him just about everyday in his yard or in his truck and he would always smile and wave really big. I loved that about your Daddy. I remember going to the fair and spending the night with you all. These are such great memories for me. You are in my thoughts and prayers. God got a good one. Again, I will miss that great big smile of his and that wave ….
My thoughts and prayers are with the family. Carol was always an upbeat fellow with a good attitude and he had his priorities in order. He was a good man.
Fondly,
Sam Reese

I just heard about Carol’s passing. He will be truly missed. He was always so proud of his boys and their families. I know my father would have been there if he had been able.
