🌟 Resident of the Month: Carol 🌟

We are excited to celebrate Carol as our Resident of the Month! Carol joined Bethany Life in 2023 and grew up as one of eight children in a close-knit family with five brothers and two sisters.

Carol met her husband, Don, during her junior year of high school. Their love story began by passing notes in math class and continued through school banquets, graduation, and a summer engagement. They were married in 1966 and shared an incredible 57 years of marriage. 💍

Together, Carol and Don owned and operated a café for 15 years and raised two sons, Tim and Kent. Carol is a proud grandmother of seven and great-grandmother of eight, and she treasures memories of summer weekends spent swimming and making special moments with her boys. 💙

Carol enjoys decorating, knitting, crocheting, sewing, and crafting. She has a strong faith and loves attending church, which remains an important part of her life. She also attended Northwest College Academy, an experience she values as part of her educational journey. We are so thankful to have Carol as part of our Bethany Life family! 💛
