Carol Ragan was born and raised in San Bernardino, Calif., attended Aquinas High School and graduated from the University of Southern California. She started her teaching career in Boise, Idaho where she became active in many organizations involving children. Carol was a member of the National Program of Big Brothers and Sisters and was a big sister to a nine-year-old girl in Boise. Carol also volunteered to help students with their educational difficulties on her own time. She loved the outdoors and worked with several ecological groups to help stabilize the environment in Idaho. Her main project was the Wolf Release and Recovery Program. Carol was also the Volunteer Educational Coordinator for the children of Boise. In 1996, a drunk driver near Bellevue, Wa. tragically struck and killed Carol. The last words in her private journal were, "Ask your heart what is right and follow it." Carol's parents James and Arlene Ragan, along with their good friend Jim McConnell, founded Carol's Kitchen in 1998. Carol's ongoing philosophy was to help those who were less fortunate than herself.
