Carolyn Ballantyne

Laurie, Bruce and David, I will miss your mom a lot. I used to stop and take her something like chocolates, the favorite of mine, cranberry nut muffins from Tobey's and she always was the same--no complaining. It was wonderful the care and concern you each did to care for your mom. The children and grandchildren who spoke did a fantastic job. So many have sent cards and mentioned what a fine funeral you had. I love you all dearly. Love always, Aunt Elsie

Laurie, David and Bruce
My heart goes out to all or you. Your parents were such wonderful people.

I have great admiration for the courage and dignity that Carolyn
showed in her last year and always with that beautiful smile.
I am honored to have known her as "my friend"....she left her footprints on my heart!

I met Carolyn through MOCA. I wish that I could have known her all my life--She was a wonderful person. I am so grateful that she was able to remain at home with her family and friends throughout her last illness. Thank you for your loving care.

To Laurie, Bruce and David:
Laurie, I am so sad to hear of your loss. To Bruce and David, you guys probably don't remember me. When I lived out that way, you boys were pretty young. I worked with your Dad and with Laurie for New England Tel. Your Mom was a most delightful and knowledgable woman - always gracious with an open mind, a big heart and certainly always happy to welcome anyone into her home.

You kids will certainly miss her deeply but will forever carry her with you...
