Mom, you would be so proud of him. Eric Louis Piening is quite well, and so am I. He did buy a motorcycle, but you already know that. Please watch over him and keep him safe.

Carol was a Co-worker and a good Friend to my Husband ( The late Denny Raitz) and I .
Whenever we saw Carol she was so bubbly and had a great sense of humor! Denny and her were always joking about life!
She loved talking about her Family ! She adored her Grandson! We could talk hours about Politics ! 
She will be truly missed! She will be in great company with Denny up in the Big Sky!  Prayers and love to the Family!

Mom, I hope this gets through to you.  I will miss you forever.

 For anything you want to know about my mother and her influence on her children you can read in Patrice Bryan's  beautifully written memorial to her.   See it below as  mentioned.  Grammatically, lyrically and subjectively perfect. She is the better master of words.

Carol was one of the Wedgwood moms who kept an eye on the neighborhood kids as we roamed from one yard to another. Our families went camping (at Bennett Springs I believe). I remember snacks in the kitchen, watching tv, and just hanging out. Your mom talked to us, and I especially remember her laughing to the point of tears. I know you will miss her terribly. You are in my thoughts.

Carol was my cousin and will be missed by
everyone.  We didn't get to see her very often as we live in Texas. We saw her during my last visit to St. Louis.

Carol was a blast!  She brightened our days at Boeing.  I brought her flowers every Monday morning and she loved them.

For all who loved Carol and are grieving, may the road rise to meet you, the wind be always at your back, the rains fall soft upon your fields, the sun shine warm upon your face,and until you meet again, may God hold you in the palm of His hand.

I worked with Carol at Boeing and she would make us all laugh.  She was a sweet and caring person.  My thoughts and prayers go out to the family.

I never met you, but I wish I could have! You gave the world two beautiful daughters, and one of them was my DIL, for a time. Your life mattered, and I am so sure you will be missed. My condolences to the family! John and Diana Ross

Carol was my cousin.  We were about the same age.  She was very smart and very funny.  When we were in our late teens, we used to double date.  Those were fun times.  We will miss her.

I worked with Carol for many years, she made me laugh every day.  Many good memories of her.

Carol-You were my favorite person at Boeing. Every day we would have something funny to discuss about working at Boeing. I missed you when I retired. May you have peace with the good Lord forever.

My prayers go out to the family. Carol had a great personality and was such an inspiration to me during my bout with breast cancer. She always kept me encouraged and helped me make it thru many dismal days in MIS.  Rest in peace Carol

In the end I knew you knew me
and that was more than I could ask for.
after these last years of just treading air always
our moments of laughing barely diminished
and the word challenges and 
the banter slowed like gelatin hardening.
and sometimes dementia seems like
pouring water on a life
and struggling to still breathe it.

but in the slowing graceful turn of a mind
there is a quiet I have seen
that is deeper than the brain just slowing
and it's better than the hub of this plain
I could tell
and it was lit up like Christmas
and it might be some bright emergence of the soul.

but time runs us down like a tired train
a silver coin stuck halfway 
in the slot of a ceramic bank
you were always poised
on the edge of joy--
always got the joke--
your laughter was full of our history.
And we talked about grand living
and you said you'd
always wanted the bigger life, 
but I knew it was only on paper
you had no care for false golds and affects
you could spot ersatz a mile away
(but didn't call it that).

once when I was 7 I 
asked you to draw me an ice skater
you should have gone to art school
I carry that exact picture you drew in my head
even the graphite smears on the paper--
her perfect 1958 hairdo.
I was so impressed
I realized I would draw for life.

Scrabble was your and grandma's gift to me
an inherited pithy lexicon
(a bit of a burden really, this penchant for words)
but it led me to my classroom in a way I honor.

We had much joy.

Hidden in the creases of your face
the furrows of your solitude
spread out over years 
shadows hedged with worries of daughters
and dreams unmet
the changing sorrows of your face
now rest
in smiles that I will hold forever.

Kelley and Jane,  I just heard a few minutes ago of the passing of Carol and am so sorry for your loss.  I never worked with Carol; however, I will always remember all the laughs we had at "First Friday" each month years ago.  May the Holy Father keep you all and your families close to his heart during this difficult time.

Kelley - We are sorry for the loss of your mother.  Please know that our thoughts and prayers are with you and your family.

- Tim & MariCarmen Conway

After working with Carol for several years I can say she was one of my favorite co-workers. So easy to get along with and always ready with a smile. I have many fond memories of our conversations.

I'm thinking somewhere up there, there's a heck of a Scrabble game going on right now.

I'm thinking there is a heck of a good Scrabble game going on wherever she is right now.

At one time, I worked with Carol.  She loved her family and always talked about Eric.  She always had a smile.  I enjoyed my conversations with her.  God bless her family during this time.  She impacted my life and I am blessed to have known her.

Carol - I am so lucky to have known you.  We had such fun at Boeing joking and laughing.  You will be missed greatly!
