Canoga Park, California and graduated from Canoga Park High in 1961.
After graduation she attended cosmetology school at Latin Brothers
School of Beauty in Reseda, CA in 1962. In 1981 she went to work for
Pacific Bell as a directory assistant operator and retired after 17
years of devoted service. Carol volunteered her time at the Simi
Valley VFW Post 10049 as President of the Women’s Auxiliary and
provided patients at the Camarillo State Hospital with beautiful hair.
Carol was one of the best damn cooks of various cuisines and her home
and table were always open and available to anyone who crossed her
threshold. It will certainly be a much lonelier life to many without
her love and compassion. She will be missed by all, Rest in Peace.
