Carrol lived in Comanche and Erath Counties his entire life. He and Judith were long time members of Double N Cowboy Church of Dublin. Carrol served in the National Guard. He was a self-employed farmer and enjoyed working outdoors. Carrol loved woodworking. He was an extremely talented carpenter and used that God given talent to often do for others. For years, Carrol would hand make wood teddy bear rocking chairs for every child born to a family within his church. Each meticulously make chair would have that new child's name carved into it. He also donated many handmade items to West Texas Rehab for their annual fundraising auctions every year. Carrol loved watching rodeos and especially enjoyed the PBR. In his later years, he really enjoyed sitting outside on a pretty afternoon and spending time with his family. Carrol loved peanut butter and could easily consume a large jar within a week! He was a devoted husband, loving father, doting grandfather, and caring neighbor. Carrol was a very attentive grandfather to three grandchildren that he and Judith raised. He will be missed by all who knew and loved him.
