May God bless you and your family in this time of sorrow.

Danny, I cannot begin to tell you how shocked I was to hear of Carolyn's death. I had no idea she had been ill. I think of you both so often, with so much love.

Reid and I were so shocked to hear about Carolyn. She was so talented and so much fun. I'm sorry that it has been a long time since we've seen you but our prayers will be with you and your family.

Dear Chris and family,
I was SO sorry (and shocked) to see Carolyn's obituary in the Greenville paper. Even though I only met Carolyn a couple times, I felt like I knew her from all the conversations with your Mom. She obviously was a wonderful person and had so many friends who truly admired her. So many things to be proud of. I miss your Mom too...she was fun to work with!
God Bless you and all of your family,

Danny & Family,

So sorry to hear of your loss. Keeping you in our prayers.
