Carole married the love of her life, Ray Maddock in 1954 and they enjoyed an amazing life together. Carole and Ray bought their first house on Old Mill Beach in Westport - Carole’s idea when very few people wanted to live near the beach. Years later they moved to Burnham Hill where they raised their two boys, Gregg and Todd. Carole was a very social, active and determined person, creating her own Tag Sale and Estate Sale business called Those Two Girls, with co-founder and good friend Pat Fay. Carole utilized her strong work ethic and great social skills to build a very successful business, that she was extremely proud of. She was fortunate to work with many friends, and built many new friendships along the way. Carole was a very thoughtful and giving person, always thinking of others. She would regularly collect future gifts for her friends and family, including special items from her Tag Sales. She always liked to stay active and fit, as an avid skier, tennis player, and she enjoyed water aerobics.
