Carol loved to travel with her husband Leroy, especially to Eagle River for Cranberry Fest and family trips to the cabin on Cranberry Lake where we enjoyed fish fry at Honey Bears, sitting around the living room talking and laughing, and enjoying time on the water; these memories will always be cherished. Carol also enjoyed gardening, going to her Water aerobic classes at the aquatic center with her friends and then the ladies would head over to McDonalds to have great conversation. Carol also loved to bake; at the holidays you would always find plenty of baked goods on the table and one recipe her grandkids couldn’t get enough of was her cranberry bread.
