ONE DAY, HER BEST FRIEND, DORTHY, ASKED HER IF SHE WOULD LIKE TO JOIN A WRITING GROUP IN THE LOCAL SENIOR CENTER. AT THAT TIME, CAROL’S INTEREST WAS IN CERAMICS. IN THIS PURSUIT, SHE WON SEVERAL AWARDS.
AFTER SEVERAL REFUSALS, CAROL JOINED THE WRITING GROUP AND THERE SHE STAYED FOR THE NEXT 20 YEARS.
CAROL’S WRITING STYLE IMMEDIATELY DREW PRAISE IN THE GROUP. SHE ENJOYED TELLING A STORY OR TURNING A SERIOUS TOPIC ON ITS HEAD WITH A SURPRISE ENDING. CAROL USUALLY REFUSED TO WRITE ABOUT HER PERSONAL LIFE EXCEPT IN “HEART WARMING” CASES.
TRUTH BE TOLD, SHE SUFFERED MANY TRAGIC EVENTS SUCH AS THE LOST OF CHILDREN AND YET SHE WAS ALWAYS READY AND PLEASED TO SMILE AT A GREETING AND LISTEN TO ANY CALL FOR HELP. SHE WAS PETITE (FOUR FT 10 INCHES), PITHY IN HER SPEECH AND POSSESSED A HUGE AMOUNT OF COMMON SENSE.
WE PLAYED SCRABBLE AT LEAST TWICE DAILY AND JEOPARDY! BECAME A NIGHTLY AFFAIR.
SHE WAS CONSTANTLY WORKING ON CROSSWORDS AND LOGIC PROBLEMS.
I LOVED HER DEEPLY. SHE WAS THE BEST WIFE ANY MAN COULD HOPE FOR. ETERNITY WITH HER WOULD BE HEAVEN.ver menos
