Carol was a graduate of Piqua Central High School, Class of 1974. She was a member of St. Mary Catholic Church. Carol worked various part time and full time jobs throughout adulthood, but her favorite and most important role was being a mother and homemaker. She was always busy in the house working on something, whether it was changing the decor, taking a wall down to open a room up, or decorating for the holidays. Carol enjoyed collecting dolls and sewing, and enjoyed traveling with the family to some of their favorite places around the country, namely Myrtle Beach, the Smoky Mountains, Florida, Arizona, and Las Vegas to name a few. Family was incredibly important to Carol, and she was always close with her brothers and sisters, but had a special bond with her twin, Catherine and all the girls in their big family. Carol was strong in her faith and was a prayer warrior for others. She will surely be missed by all who loved her.
