Carole was born in Damariscotta. Maine, to Harold “Red” and Mildred Delano of Wiscasset. She attended school locally and during high school worked at her parents’ restaurants, namely, Red’s Eats in Wiscasset, for which her father was the original namesake. 

She graduated from the University of Maine, where she met her future husband Forest Goodman. They were married in Wiscasset in 1970, and then settled in Bridgton where Forest’s family lived. 

Carole started a career in real estate at Century 21, then on to RE/MAX at the Lakes, where she and Sharon Diran formed a long and successful partnership. Carole was extremely active in the Maine real estate industry, being a consistent top seller and a member of various real estate boards and commissions for forty years. She was awarded Realtor of the Year while at Bridgton’s At The Lakes Realty where she currently worked. Carole could often be found dancing at Stone Mountain Arts Center.

She leaves behind her husband Forest, her daughter Ivy, her granddaughter Ella Fuchs and her grandson Lyle Fuchs. She will be sorely missed by both her relatives and many loved ones whose lives she also touched. She was predeceased by a daughter, Tansy.

A service to honor Carole’s life will be held at 1 p.m., Saturday, July 13, at the First Congregational Church, UCC, 33 So. High St., Bridgton, where a time of fellowship and refreshment will follow.
