Carol was a beloved homemaker and had a deep love for animals. She spent countless hours raising, training, and showing horses. She also loved sharing this passion with others by giving riding lessons to area youth. She was also a well-known and loved breeder of border collie puppies. She loved each and every pup and kept up with every family that took in one of her pups. Any and every one that shared in her animal adventures, became part of Carols family. She will be missed by all that knew and loved her.
