In loving memory of Carolyn on the one year anniversary of her passing...I still can't believe you are gone and I will never forget you. You played a special role in my life when I really needed someone to come through for me. If for no other reason you were put here on this earth, you were one of my special messengers sent by God for such a time as that. I will forever hold you near and dear to my heart eternally. Rest Well, Carolyn! Your loving friend Edna

My condolences and heartfelt sympathy to Carolyn's family. I loved her dearly and will miss her tremendously. She helped me at a time when I was really struggling in life and I never got to tell her how much I appreciated her for that, but i think she knew. She will always hold a special place in my heart forever!
