Carol June Herrold was born to Claire and Ruth White on November 15, 1936. She moved around a lot as a child and lived in places such as Council Bluffs and Grand Island, NE before landing in Granger in 1954.
Prior to moving to Granger, she enjoyed playing coronet in the marching band. Carol graduated from Granger High School in May of 1956.
She was united in marriage to Francis Eugene "Gene" Herrold on May 20th, 1956. Together they raised 3 children; Robert, Elizabeth and Claire.
Carol held many different jobs in her life including working at the Woodward Resource Center, Look Magazine, Casey's, Norwest Card Services and as a veterinary technician.
When Carol and Gene both retired they traveled to Apache Junction, AZ as "snow birds" to spend the winter months enjoying the warm weather, playing cards and visiting with the many friends they made over the years.
Over the years following their adventures traveling south, Carol found joy in working at the Woodward Granger Elementary School as a Foster Grandparent. She loved helping the children reach their full potential and was always willing to help around in the classroom in any way she could.
