I knew Carol for over 35 years as a treasured member of the Elvis Fan Family. She was a kind hearted soul that made you feel at home as soon as you met her. Her deep faith and love of family was extraordinary. She is truly one of God’s loving children and will be sorely missed on this earth. Till we meet again, Dear Carol, rest in Eternity in the arms of Jesus. ????
