In 1992 Carol and Jim retired to a seaside home in Aptos. She continued to volunteer her time and skills to various organizations. Carol was predeceased by her husband of nearly 60 years. She will be greatly missed by her sons, Mike, Mark, and Jim; her four grandchildren and her sister, Margaret Folsom May (SPHS '46).
