A very keen bridge player and competitor, she played in tournaments in St. Louis, Los Angeles and Santa Fe winning several times and was runner up to the ‘Italian Blue Team’.

She liked music and opera - loved dogs and children – and preferred fine dining, social events, fashion and travel, particularly Europe:  Paris and Venice were her favorite cities….Paris for the café’s, fashion and art, Venice for restaurants and Renaissance Festivals.  One of her memorable European trips was to attend The Cannes Film Festival.

Known for her love of life and sense of humor, Carol will be sorely missed by all who knew and loved her.
