Mom was such a gem. She always had a smile and offered a helping hand to everyone. You never heard her say anything unkind to or about anyone. Nothing will ever take her place.

She anxiously awaitsg the day when we will be reunited with her. Carol's family would like to extend a special thank you to Dr. Peracha and his staff for the wonderful care given to Carol.
