Carole retired from the US Government after 33 years of service before making the move to Florida. She worked for many branches of the government in such positions as office manager, computer specialist, secretary, administrator, and “a little bit of everything”. She was also a member of the US Coast Guard Reserve for 4 years. After she retired, she spent many years teaching dance in the community and finished her working career as General Manager of Spanish Springs Lanes in Villages, Florida where she had been for almost 20 years. She enjoyed her life traveling, the opportunities of living all over the country, bowling, dancing and any other adventure that came her way. Most of her trips included her parents, Edna and C.D. Padrick, Sr. Those that knew her, know how much she adored her dogs. They were her “children” too. She was a supporter of the SPCA and in lieu of flowers, she would rest knowing continued support also went to them. A funeral service will be held at 12 noon on Friday, Sept. 7, 2018 in Loving Funeral Home with visitation starting at 11:30 am.
