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.

Thoughts
A beautiful memory dearer than gold-
Of a sister whose worth can never be told.
There's a place in my heart no one could fill-
I miss you dear sister and always will.
.To hear your voice, to see you smile-
To sit and talk to you awhile.
To be together in the same old way-
Would be my dearest wish today.
Love and miss you always-Marilyn xxxxx
