Dear colleagues, Carol spent one year here in the Sydney House with Joe, in 1969. We learnt so much from Carol- I remember she smashed a glass on the floor as some of us were leaving to go to the first ITI in Singapore, August '69- dramatically symbolising that we who went- would come home as vastly different and deeply changed- people, and she was right. We thank God for her life and service to humankind. Isobel BIshop. On 21/09/2012, at 8:10 AM, Mary Laura Jones wrote:
Carol Pierce passed away a little before noon today of cardio- pulmonary complications. Aimee Hilliard and Mary Laura Jones were with Carol the entire morning. Carol enjoyed the Accelerate 77 event on Saturday and loved keeping in touch with many of you and keeping track of your lives and activities.
There will be a Memorial Service at the ICA GreenRise Center building on a weekend in the September or October. I will post the time and date as soon as the family decides the date.
Carol will be deeply missed. She was a wise and courageous mentor to many of us. I will miss her wisdom, her humor, her gracious attitude and her demonstration of living a great life in the midst of physical adversity.

Yes, we in Chicago learned about it this afternoon. We hope more details will follow. She did get to be at the Accelerate 77 event and mingled with colleagues here at 4750 afterward. She will be missed.
Grace & Peace,
