Dedicated to the memory of Carol

    Carol was a dedicated & loving wife, mum & grandmother. She bought happiness into everyone's life that she was part of. Loving to travel & looking for adventure saw Carol visit as far afield as New Zealand to Singapore & in a moment of madness agree to jump out of a perfectly serviceable aeroplane over Salisbury plain, raising money for a local children's hospice in Sussex.
    Marrying Alan at a young age, Carol became an Army wife, living in Germany, Northern Ireland & the UK. Germany being her first time abroad, Carol adapted well to Army life, taking care of Alan, putting tea on the table & even serving up frozen fish on one occasion to Alan & a work colleague! After 22 years of service Alan left the forces & they both began new lives, with Carol going to work in a bakery & progressing to management.
    Carol then took a change in direction and went into nursing & home-care, caring for the elderly within their homes ensuring they were washed & fed. After several years of wiping old peoples bum's Carol took another change in direction & joined Her Majesty's Prison service as an Operational Support Grade. Carol loved working for the Prison service & saw this through until retirement.
    Carol basically spent her life looking after & caring for people, which she loved & did amazingly well!
    In the past 20 years Carol had fought of throat cancer & breast cancer, ultimately the third time she was not quite so lucky & passed away surrounded by family, pain free, holding Alan's hand at 19:55 hours on 13th October 2016. No more pain, Sleep well. Love always.
Carol Lynda Hill ~ 27/11/1950 to 13/10/2016
