CAREER

Derby 1976

My Xerox career began in September 1972. Apparently, persistence landed me the job as the first female Sales Representative to work in the Louisville Branch.  In 1986, after fourteen years, I left Xerox to become a Sales Manager for a local office supply and furniture company and became the Direct Sales Manager for Cellular One in 1987,  In 1990 relocated to Sacramento as their Major Account Marketing Manager.


In 1992, I was fortunate to return to Xerox, in Louisville, as an Outsourcing Sales Rep under George Hodgson, who was then General Manager.  I had a total of twenty years with Xerox before I retired in February of 1998.

WEDDING BELLS

Coincidently, in January 1998, I married Roy Whayne of Whayne Supply Company, one of my accounts at the time.  We were very happily married until August of 2007, when he passed away.

FAMILY

My two grown daughters are happily married and I am a proud Grandmother of five.  Caroline, my oldest is 8 years old, twins Ryan and Reid are 6, Hank is 3 and Hayden is almost 2.

INTEREST'S

Most of my time is spent tending to my grandchildren, whom I adore.  I am in a book club, a bridge club, on the Ballet Board, on the Holy Trinity School Board, and involved with Home of the Innocents.  I wrote a book entitled “A Grandmother’s Lullaby”, which you can view on my web site (agrandmotherslullaby.com).

11/3/20 @ 11:00 I received this email from Carol's Daughter Jennifer: 

Thanks to everyone for" your support and prayers. My Mom was discharged for the hospital yesterday late afternoon. She is still moving slowly but in good spirits. I have her set up with home care and home nursing care. She continues to improve and her prognosis is excellent. 

However, due to the fact that Mom is now a COVID 'extremely high risk' patient, we are asking that she not receive any visitors this week, so she has time to heal. I have heard that many people are interested in helping with food etc so I will be setting up a 'Meal Train' for her as soon as I can. 

Once again- I would like to thank each and every of you for your prayers and support. Every prayer obviously helped bring Mom home, and Cindy and I can not Thank You enough for you support during this surprising situation.  If you wish, please send any get well notes to Carol's phone (text):  PHONE  or  EMAIL
