Carol was born on December 21, 1931 in Vienna, South Dakota; the daughter of Elmer and Hazel (Uckert) Robish.

Besides being a dedicated homemaker, she worked many years as a telephone operator for Bell Telephone Company and later the 3M Company in St. Paul.  After her retirement she continued working as a play ground supervisor for the Hudson School District.

First and foremost, Carol cherished her family. She loved cooking and entertaining family and friends. Cooking gave her thegreatest pleasure.  She enjoyed watching a good softball or baseball game, sewing, and square dancing earlier in life.  Furthermore, she loved sneaking an occasional trip to the casino and her favorite night-cap. Bingo and the nickel slots were her favorites.   She always looked forward to their camping trips, and wintering down south in Arizona.
