Kathy, Connie, Pat and Dave- My heart goes out to all of you during this time of your Mom's passing. What a great women she was is putting it mildly. She was one of the most giving people that I can remember growing up as a child. She always asked if we needed anything and oh how I remember her pimento sandwiches with ingredients purchased from Marsh. I find peace in her passing knowing that she can now dance with my angel in heaven. God Bless all of you. Love you-

Aunt Carolyn was one of my favorite aunts, she had the best laugh and always seemed so happy with her life and especially took great joy in her family. I will miss her even though I did not get to see her too often. She was one of my mom's best friends and I loved to see them together. My thoughts and prayers go out to you Kathy and Connie, Pat and David during this time.

Aunt Carolyn was truly an amazing woman. When I was little, I loved to watch and hear her play the piano. It was wonderful. She was always a very nice, happy and considerate person. She made you feel good. She will be missed but her spirit will be with us in very good memories. Love, Linda

Carolyn one of the most kind and thoughtful persons I have ever known. Always turning a bad day into a journey of enlightenment. My daughter said she loved this lady for she reminded her of her own grandmother and that gave her comfort. Carolyn was a joy to work with and a delight to know.
