I remember cousin Caroline from when I was very young. We would visit the family and Caroline was always fun to be around. She also had a wonderful sense of humor. My condolences to all my fellow cousins. She will be missed.

Our deepest sympathy go out to Merk and all of Caroline’s family. She truly was an amazing woman always compassionate, caring and full of life. From the Grove to Ridgemont to Dominics, when she came in it would always light up my day! I always appreciated and respected the friend she was to us. I know she will be missed dearly and hope all the wonderful memories will bring you some peace and comfort. Our thoughts are with you.
With Love and Sincerity,
MaryEllen & Tim (Frank)

My name is Shawn Hollub and I live in Huntington Beach, California. About two years ago I took a DNA test and discovered that Pierce Keough, Carols brother, was my biological father. I am so saddened to hear of her passing. What an accomplished and wonderful human being she was. I will always regret that I never got to meet her, nor my father. But to say I am proud to be a part of this family is an understatement. My cousin Michele McClory sent me this link, And when I look at the picture of Carol, I see the resemblance between us. May you rest in peace and know you made the world a better place.
