A Couple More Photos

Always pleased to find unexpected pics of Carol! Here are a couple I somehow missed before.

3 Short Years Ago

I was browsing through CTL Leaders pictures from years gone by, and came across these great photos of Carol's beautiful smiling face, adorned by flowers. They're from October 3-4, 2005, at Ruttger's in Brainerd, MN

Paula's Memories

Here is Carol all bundled up for the day at Brainerd ready to take pictures of the cars and people. After a few years of going to the August meet, we knew that you had to pack shorts and winter coats both!!! On Friday it could be 80 and sunny and on Sunday the weather could change to a high of 50 with a north west wind.

This is a photo I took several years ago of Carol and her Fiat at Brainerd, MN.

I took this photo of Carol on one of the last lunches that we had together. We went to Menomonie, WI to Antique shop and had lunch at the Creamery.

Stanchion Bowling

Carol has been a member of the Stanchion bowling team for eight years. She went to several state tournaments and two national bowling tournaments in Reno. We loved and supported Carol through her illness and her upbeat and positive attitude cheered our team to victory. Pictured: Carol, Diane Benson, Bev Mahlke, Sue Myrmel, Terri Michurski, Jan Witzke, and Verna Shepherd.

Pictured: Diane Benson, Carol, Bev Mahlke, Verna Shepherd, and Jan Witzke. Carol loved getting away to national tournaments, and was proud of her skills. This was taken in the spring of 2006 at the National Women's Championships in Reno.

We were blessed to have had lunch on October 4th in Hudson, Wisconsin with Carol and Rand. Pictured: Jan, Verna, Bev, Diane, Carol and Rand.

Carol's beautiful smile.

Carol and the Shelby Cobra

In July of 2006 Carol and Rand were at the Virginia International Speedway. The folks in charge were letting people out on the speedway, and Jeff Burgy took Carol out for a few spins around. Carol thoroughly enjoyed the ride.

Are you a friend, neighbor, or colleague and have a story to share, but aren't sure where to put it? Here is a place to share your stories. Carol loved stories of all kinds, and others who knew her would enjoy hearing yours. Just click on the "Comment" section, and be sure to include your name at the end. If you have photos, either digital or other, you can send them to me with your return address and I can include them. I promise to return them to you. Carla Weigel

Carol in the Bahamas

Carol and Susan spent a week of sun and fun at the Atlantis Resort in the Bahamas, May of 2000. They enjoyed all sorts of "free" beverages and activities. Some of the red in the picture is a side effect of the "free" beverages, and some of it was because of the wonderful sun! It was one of Susan's best memories of Carol, and it was great they spent the time together. It was the first time Susan really knew about the constant conversations Carol had with herself.
