In 1985, Carol and Dick built their auto shop in Kaysville, Utah, Dick’s Tire and Auto, which later became Dick’s American Car Care. Together they ran a successful business for many years. They sold the business in 1998.

Carol had a deep love for music. She loved to play it loud and sing along with her beautiful voice. She was an amazing seamstress and over the years made many clothes and blankets for her family. She loved being in the kitchen and cooking delicious meals. Throughout their life together, Carol and Dick enjoyed many activities and adventures, such as fishing and hunting, camping and horseback riding. She was a lover of all animals and she will especially be missed by her beloved dog, Poppy and her cat, Doofy.
