Carole was a longtime member of Corpus Christi Parish. Aside from her constant smile and quick wit, she enjoyed gambling and playing bingo. Yet, her favorite thing in life after desserts was being a grandma. Luckily, the grandkids lived nearby and were able to visit often.
Instead of flowers, please consider donating to your local charity, the Samantha Hickey Foundation, or Corpus Christi Parish.
