Carroll was a dedicated son, brother, husband, father and grandfather. There was nothing he wouldn’t do for his family. Carroll spent much of his free time on the creeks of James Island. He enjoyed fishing, crabbing and treasure hunting through the Saturday morning garage sales. He always had anything you could imagine needing and was especially attentive to items he felt you could use. Carroll was a quiet man, always deep in thought with a childish grin that quietly revealed his pleasure when he shared a quick-witted piece of information.
