Please convey my congratulations and best wishes to Rev. Carol. We were friends in Jersey City, NJ, but unfortunately I lost track of her after she began a ministry in Pennsylvania. I have tried to locate her at various times through the years with no success, but today, thanks to ‘Google’ I found this article. During a lunchtime conversation two new friends, Carol Neumann and her daughter Rosemary mentioned Grace Church in Jersey City and I asked if they had known Rev. Carol when she ministered there and they expressed how much she was loved and missed when she left. If possible please let Rev. Carol know that though out of sight and touch she remains in my heart and on my mind, in my thoughts and prayers. Thank you! Dolores Steinhauser
