She was born December 30, 1961, in Neptune, New Jersey, the daughter of William and Margaret Koelsch. She grew up and attended schools in Lakewood, New Jersey. Carol worked for Dexter Shoe for several years before becoming a caretaker for her parents with her late sister, Deborah. Carol was a member of the Brownville United Methodist Church. Carol had a warm heart and a free spirit. She was kind, loving, funny, and a joy to be around. Earlier in her life she could be found laughing and dancing around the house listening to music. Carol was a social butterfly and enjoyed the company of people; especially her friend, Marie. One of Carol’s favorite activities was playing Bingo while she resided at Orono Commons.
