Carole is survived by her loving son, Andrew (Watseka) Kerns; sister, Mary Lou Rowe; special niece, Sharon Paoloni; special nephews, Gary White, Miles White, and Harry Holbrook; numerous other nieces and nephews; and numerous other special family members and friends whom she cherished.

Carole volunteered many years at Zane Trace Elementary before accepting a position in the Zane Trace Cafeteria. She retired in 2011. After retirement, she and friend, Cate Boggs, had many wonderful overnight trips to stage performances of stars, dance troupes, and Cirque du Soleil.
