Carol grew up in South Fork, Pennsylvania; where she met her husband, John McIntire, at the teen canteen. After her marriage to John, they moved to Dearborn Heights, Michigan where she lived for over sixty-five years. Carol was a devoted and caring wife, mother, grandmother, sister, and friend, and she loved the time she spent with her family. When her daughters were children, she was a Girl Scout leader and active in their schools. Throughout her life, Carol enjoyed cooking — she baked the best desserts, and she always had a spot at the table for family, friends, and neighbors. Carol was an active member of Good Shepard United Methodist Church. She enjoyed traveling and visited every state, Europe, and China. Carol also had a keen eye for antiques and curated many beautiful collections.
