Gene Carroll, thank you for being a part of my life. You were such a great friend to my Mama and Daddy. I will always remember your gentleness and your soft spoken tone, but always honest and straightforward. You are now with Jesus, Mama, Daddy and Susanne. I will be there someday too. Prayers for your family.

Gene Carroll has always had a special place in my heart. Story is my middle name is because of her. She was thoughtful, caring & encouraging. She helped to make many of birthdays special. Even though I was at church camp one year she made sure I got a birthday card delivered. Even today I have several children´s books that she gifted me. Time passed, I grew up, moved out of state & we lost touch. Sorry to hear of her passing, yet grateful to have had her impact in my life.
