I will miss Carol. She was always a bright spot in my day, and a wonderful lady.
When I was new at the library, and didn't know any better - I asked her about getting some cucumbers, as I wanted to learn to pickle. She informed me she didn't have cucumbers but would be happy to bring me some pickles.
Well, she brought me 2 big grocery sacks filled with the most beautiful little pickles for me to process. I didn't have time to do them right away, so I left them on the kitchen floor for about 5 days, until I could pickle them.
When I told Carol about my "pickling method" and offered her a jar, she gave me her half smiles and said - "I bet those are good pickles!, but I have plenty of them." Later she told me they needed to be processed right away, or put in a brine.
Carol was fun to talk to, and I loved hearing here talk about different things on the farm.
She will always be one of those special people in my heart and memories.
I loved working with Caroline during Kiwanis activities - just thinking about it makes me smile with good memories. She was always so calm and organized - I want to be more like her! I also remember her face, beaming with pride and happiness, whenever she talked about her new great-grandchild, she was so excited about that!
