Carol Fleming-Al Alroush


Carol Fleming-Al Alroush
                                     October 09, 1959 - May 27, 2013


 

Initially, when I started my blog, it was to keep in touch with family and friends and to minimize sending multiple emails and pictures to everyone especially from a place where I consider the internet service to be a bit slow. So a month before I arrived in Saudi (August 2011), I got motivated to blog my experiences from following the blog, American Bedu (www.americanbedu.com).  
 
           Through my readership, one of the women that lives on my compound (Thanks Charmie!) connected me with her friend, renowned blogger Carol Fleming aka American Bedu. It was an honor and pleasure to be recognized and interviewed by such a well-known icon. 

            I have never met Carol, but feel connected to her spiritually. I am so grateful and honored that she touched my life. What a special woman who achieved and did so much for others. My condolences go out to her family. I will never forget her. She has truly been my inspiration to me and so many others!
 
All the best,
GMarie

  1. I met Carol while on a several day trip to Saudi Arabia to conduct a workshop for physicians who wanted to develop higher quality test questions. I too have been touched by her incredible courage, and her reaction to the challenges she has faced. My condolences to her son and the grandchildren who meant so much to her.
