Carol Druck, owned Latonia beauty salon
Thirty-two years ago, Carol Druck cut a friend's hair just in time for her wedding.
Two years ago, she cut the hair of her friend's daughter -- just in time for her wedding.
"She was one of those hairdressers you knew would be there no matter what, " said a friend, Larry Barr of Covington. "Everyone in the Covington area knew her."
Mrs. Druck, 56, of Latonia, died Sunday at St. Elizabeth North Medical Center in Covington.
She had been a hairdresser for 35 years and operated Carol's Family Hairstyling on Madison Avenue by herself.
She was also known for her generosity, said Margaret Lawhead of Covington, another of Mrs. Druck's friends. "If somebody needed a meal, she wouldn't give them the money, but she would send them over to (a restaurant) and pay for their meal, " Mrs. Lawhead said.
Another time, Mrs. Druck lent her money to make a move, Mrs. Lawhead said. "She was just so nice to me."
Mrs. Druck was also active in her church, Community Pentecostal of Independence, where she was an usher and bought toys for children at Christmas.
She is survived by her husband, Roger.
