She studied music at Chautauqua Institute in NY and graduated from Capital University in 1962 with an Executive Secretarial degree.

Carol worked in administrative roles at Capital University, for Drs.Cevasco and Smucker, NTN Bearing, substituting in various clerical positions for Medina City Schools, and taught remedial reading to GED students through the Literacy Council of Medina County.

She sang briefly with the Medina County Chorus.

Later in life, Carol dedicated herself to her family, caring for loved ones and supporting her children's and grandchildren's growth with selflessness, humility, and love. Her greatest attribute was putting the wants, needs and desires of others before herself. She enjoyed flowers, classical music, recreational biking, word games, and puzzles.
