My sympathies to all family members of Carole. While living on Yates Blvd during the 50's and 60's, Carole and her wonderful family, the Heins lived next door on floor 3. We enjoyed Carole's outgoing personality, her charm and class. I remember being an impressionable young girl and hearing that she was a stewardess. I thought that was just an amazing job. Although I hadn't seen Carole after leaving the South Side, I know that she is in the peace of Christ, with no more pain and struggles. Till we meet again, friend,

Hi Carole,



What a wonderful sister, wife and mother you have been! You did yourself proud with Rene'e & Matt. You also were blessed with two beautiful grandchildren.



We all were sorry that you had to struggle just to breathe, but I know that you are now in heaven spending Christmas with Jesus Christ this year and hearing choirs of angels singing like no other sound and that you are very much at peace.



I also know that you are with all the loved ones who went before you and that you are happy.



Carole, know that God loves you and that we love you and that we will miss you until we meet again in heaven.



Say hello to David, Billy, mom and dad, Ganz, Ann, Virginia, Bud, Peg & Jack.



Now that you are a saint, we will also pray to you to intercede for our intentions.



Love You!



Your sister, Judy!
