She graduated from St Peters Girls High School and began working at Consolidated Edison where she met the love of her life [Glen]. Shortly after that they were married on March 24, 1974. It was a match made in heaven. After working there for several years she felt the need to move on. She then went to work for her church," All Saints Episcopal Church". She spent many hours beyond what was required of her to help and assist her parishioners. Carol loved to go camping, she would help Glen hook up their camper and both would travel to different camp grounds every year. During one of their summer vacations, they found a place called Ocean Lakes Camp Grounds in South Carolina. From that point on she made it clear to Glen that this is where she wanted to be, to spend all her vacations there. After retirement, they sold the camper, and bought a house in Surfside Beach, South Carolina. Carol then realized that she was a real country girl. She became passionate with her line dancing and the friends she surrounded herself with. Glen passed away on July 28, 2020. Now they are together dancing to their favorite song "The Twelfth of Never" Carol Curtis was a gentle soul who loved life and all it encompassed.
