Frank and other family members,

My deepest sympathy to you. I attended HHS with Carol and we were best friends during that time. I married and moved away soon after graduation and haven't seen Carol or Frank for several years, but have fond memories of double dating with them. Carol was always a sweet and caring person and I am certain she will be sadly missed by all. Howard and I moved to Marietta in 1965. Sincerely, Marty Kitchen

Frank and Family,

Sorry to hear of your loss. Carol was a wonderful woman and I have fond memories of her as a neighbor during my time in Hillsboro. I remember a particular night when she and Frank roasted marshmellows with all the kids. They had a great time then. Carolyn
