To you all
We have just returned home from the weekend of saying our final goodbyes to Carol. She will be missed by all. While we did not want to be visiting all of you for this reason, it was so wonderful to see you come together in support and strength as a family. Your mother is looking down and smiling knowing she has taught you well. You will have your good days and bad but with each other you will percervere and will tackle any hurdle ahead. We love you all and enjoyed the kids and cannot wait to spend time with them. Love Uncle Frank and Aunt Luci

I am so sorry to hear about the passing of my cousin Carol after fighting a courageous battle. My prayers had been with her and I will continue to pray that God may hold you in his arms as the Ryder/Fernandez family mourns her passing. I will always remember Carol's fun loving and free spirited demeanor. Peace and Love, Cousin Mark

Deep sorrow and condolences to the whole family. Carol was very supportive of my mom's illness this past year. Although she was fighting her own battle she took time out to drive my mom to Dana Farber for a second opinion. I will never forget her kindness and friendship she provided to my mom. Although each of them lost their battles they left behind a lot of love and strength for their families. I'm so truly sorry for your loss.

Very saddened to lose such a beautiful soul. Her posts made me smile and they also made me think...and be grateful for the littler things. Although I hadn't seen her lately, she always had a special place in my heart. I enjoyed cleaning for her and being one of her candle reps...
Praying for comfort for your family. May she rest in peace.

There’s a miracle called friendship
That dwells within the heart,
And you don’t know how it happens
Or how it gets its start…
But the happiness it brings you
Always gives a special lift,
And you realize that friendship
Is God’s most precious gift!

I know you and T.T. are watching over all of us and are happy to be together again. I Love You, Barbie ❤️

Words cannot express how sad I am at losing you my friend, in the last 8 years there has barely been a day when I wasn't inspired by your courage and positivity, you truly were a lady
I shall miss all your posts and the pictures and updates on your lovely family - what a legacy you have left.
my Facebook is filled at the moment with pictures of your lovely smiley face - I shall miss that the most

My head was shouting, fight girl fight
The love in my heart said look for the light
So when the pain became to hard to bear
You looked to the light and your angels were there

Rest in peace sweet lady

I was saddened upon hearing of Carol's passing. I always enjoyed being with her. I admired her strength, her sense of humor, her dedication to her family and her positive attitude.
Carol was loved and will be missed by many people, especially those closest to her. I am just glad she is out of pain and suffering. She went through a lot these past years. God speed, Carol.
