Carol had a passion for music and the voice of an angel; often singing as lead vocalist for several local jazz bands. She loved Gospel Music and Contemporary Jazz. “Pete” as her father lovingly called her was the life the party. “Herkaloid” (Herk), was the nickname she called her father, they were inseparable and truly best friends. Her father was a classically trained and professional pianist; often joining each other for musical sessions that would light up a room. Pete and Herk made a mark and are now eternally in each other’s arms; making a joyful noise.
