Many Realtors, Mortgage professionals, Title and escrow representatives, and others in our industry know Carol. I’m writing this post to give you a way to send your well wishes and keep up to date on her progress. In case you don’t know Carol Icard, she is the Manager of the North American Title office in Half Moon Bay. She brings years of knowledge and experience to her clients, offers classes on various topics to her colleagues – such as a class I attended last year that she prepared for us on short sales, and does this all with humor and grace.

Carol needs us now as she fights for her life with a recent extremely serious diagnosis. Her daughter Arwyn, who works at North American Title in San Mateo, also needs our support and encouragement. A website has just been launched to provide updates and give us all a way to share encouragement, stories, well wishes, etc. to Carol and her family. Here it is: http://friendsofcarol.org/

Terry,
Thank you for your message to Carol. I forwarded it on to her right away! She and her family are checking the friendsofcarol.org site on a regular basis. How wonderful that one of her long distance friends made contact. Thanks again!
