She was loved by family and friends and touched many lives with her gentle spirited soul. Carol moved to Natick from Newton 20 years ago to her new home which became the center piece of family, food, music, poolside fun and most of all love. One of her pleasures was being a part of the 15 Gardeners of Natick.
