Carrol was also a member of the Honor Roll Society at New Mexico Technical Vocational Institute, a testament to her dedication and hard work. Supporting Ron in his singing groups and choirs brought her joy, as did traveling and taking cruises together, where she made countless memories and touched the lives of thousands with her kindness and generosity.
