School. She made a lot of friends
during school years and kept in
touch with many of them to the
present time. Carol was an avid
Facebook user and she found a
great number of new and old
friends there; many were from
her crochet clubs. A superb crochet artist, she made hundreds
of gorgeous doilies that were
admired by everyone who saw
them--many from her own original patterns. She was very artistic and enjoyed several different
crafts. Another favorite pastime
of hers was yard-sale(ing). Carol
was loved by all who were lucky
enough to know her over the
years. She was a caring and
lovely person and had a sense of
humor rivaled by none.
Carol worked as a stitcher in
various shoe and clothing manufacturing shops most of her work-
ing life. For a period before
retiri ng she was a Special Education Aide in Sunapee; she loved
those children that she worked
with. For the past six years,
Carol resided in Concord with
her sister Pat.
Carol is survived by William
Coolbeth and their daughters;
Lucinda (Cindy) Thorpe with
husband Skip of Newport, and
Lorinda (Rindy) Coolbeth of
Grantham, Grandsons (Rindy's
sons); Brian Hooper with partner
Maria and two year-old daughter
Aurielle of Norfolk, Va., where
Brian is stationed for the U.S.
Navy, and Bradley Hooper with
partner Caitlin of Newport,
where Bradley is a very hard
worker as a "jack-of-all-trades."
Carol was very proud of her children, grandchildren, and beautiful great-granddaughter.
Carol is also survived by two
sisters; Amber Thompson of
Groveton and Pat Thompson
Dupont of Concord, one brother;
Calvin Thompson with wife
Cheryl of Dalton, one brother-inlaw; Donald Hutchinson of
Groveton, and many nieces and
nephews and cousins.

was also predeceased by her
younger sister Evelyn Hutchinson of Groveton, who also died in

have no funeral services. A graveside service in the spring when
the lilacs are in bloom, at Cushman Cemetery in Dalton, will be
announced. Memorials of flowers

the mountain and a septic system at the base would be built.
This would be designed to accommodate the existing Sherman
Adams Building and the new
facility envisioned by the railroad. The hotel would be built on
land owned by the railroad that
extends along either side of the
existing track. The railroad owns
land in fee simple from the base
station to the summit of the

would envision running trains to
the new facility in the evening to
offer diners sunset dinner experiences.

facility would create well over 20
new jobs and its construction
would provide a large economic
boost to the North Country. It is
