Hi all

The original thread has become too long and unwieldy so we're trying to streamline all the information to make it easier for everyone to keep up with what's going on.

There are two other threads for support and suggestions.

Please can you leave this thread free for those who have firm updates and links? Thanks so much. flowers

That sounds absolutely perfect, granjura.

Just had a phone call from Carol's daughter- she arrived safely in South Island NZ a little while ago- and Carol's ashes will soon be interred on top of the hill, but a lovely tree, overlooking the new house. Her final travel and perfect resting place.

Very sad news. My deepest sympathy to her family and friends and a special thought for you GNers that knew her personally.

How very very sad for her family, but she died doing what she enjoyed and left so many people - including GNetters - with many happy memories.

Just logged on for an update and now this. Oh what a dreadful shame. As many have said though - she died doing what she loved. That love rang out loud and clear in many of her posts on GN. We were privileged to have connected with her. Sympathy to her family and RIP Carol.

I am not on Face Book so cannot leave messages on it so I will use this thread to express my sadness on hearing of Carol's death. My thoughts and prayers must now be for Carol's family at this terrible time for them.

I am so so sorry to read this dreadful news about Carol. It is just awful for her family, and a terribly sad loss.
I didn't know her but she was obviously a much loved lady and good friend to many. And I admire her spirit in living in the adventurous way she did and doing her mountain walks.

MargaretX Wed 06-Nov-13 14:26:07

Yes I think that, too. She really loved mountain walking and must have known of the inherent dangers as all mountaineers do. She died as she lived.
She will be greatly missed on Gransnet, it will not be the same without her.
A sad moment indeed for her family. I hope they get the privacy they need.

Such sad news deepest sympathy to Carols family such an amazing lady.flowers

So dreadfully sorry to hear this news. The members of the Grannynet forum who have been holding Carol and her family in their thoughts and lighting candles for her send their sympathy and condolences to her family and friends. If there is any consolation to be found in this tragedy may it be that her life ended in the mountains she loved.
