Carol worked at Western Union and Union Carbide both in Moorestown NJ, devoted time in caring and raising her only daughter, and later ended her career path as a medical coder for Virtua Hospital in Mount Holly before retiring. She was an avid sewist who made many beautiful quilts often gifting them to those she loved and admired. Carol had interest in bowling, photography, knitting, crocheting, and enjoyed nature especially at their home in the Poconos. She knitted Christmas stockings for the newly born children in the family. Her tulip garden was the pride of South Washington Avenue every spring. A favorite past time was going out to eat with family and friends. A slice of “chocolate cake” was a must for dessert!
Carol was a devoted and loving wife to Bill her husband of 44 years. Together, they were joyfully blessed with their daughter, Alex who she loved, adored and was her shining light.
