Carol S. is Gene M.'s sister.  I've known her since 1977, as well.  Carol is a really good person, a great cook, and a great friend.  She and I (in fact, the whole family) are pretty close, as I mention in Gene M.'s page, as close to family members as you can get, but not born into it.  I used to go to Phoenix about three or four times a year and visit them, (as well as visit a wholesaler out there for some very special deals on stuff).  Tragically, Carol's dad, Tom lost his battle with heart disease in October, 2005, another person that is missed. Her mom (Alice) passed on March 13, 2020 a few months before her 93rd birthday. Gene passed away on June 14, 2022. Most of the family members have since moved away from the house on 29th Drive, but many of them are still close by.
