Carolyn Crain

Carolyn became a wonderful friend to me in 8th grade, and that friendship and its memories remain even today, in my 70´s. That friendship included a group of seven or eight of us that still remains. Growing up in the San Fernando Valley was an incredible experience, one that included almost weekly Saturday trips to the beach, trips to downtown Hollywood to see classic movies (a favorite memory of mine is sitting on the aisle in a Hollywood theater, watching a special screening...

Carolyn was a warm, loving, thoughtful and resilient woman, and man was she funny. I always picture her beautiful eyes smiling and her laugh. Thank you to all who attended her service and who have signed this guest book. It means a great deal to our family to know how Carolyn is remembered in the thoughts of so many.

well Carolyn, the grieving process continues. This whole thing is quite disturbing. You fought so long and hard. you are deeply missed. i'm so glad that our siblings and kids were able to be together through this trying time for you and us the survivors...and it's not over.
more later,
Lots of Love,
William

It has been a great pleasure for me to know Carolyn. I have always been amazed and admired her courage in her fight. She was an inspiration for me when I was diagnosed with Breast Cancer. She will always have a special place in my heart.

The Palmer Family will miss their long time friend. Carolyn showed immense courage in fighting her loosing battle with breast cancer and somehow managed to maintain her sunny disposition and sense of humor.

It has been a great pleasure knowing and working with Carolyn over the past years. As a neighboring Library Director, I know how thoroughly dedicated she was to San Marino Library programs and services. A truly gracious woman, I feel privileged to have known her.

I want to share a quote from Marge Piercy. "What a richly colored strong warm coat is woven when love is the warp and work is the woof."

Carolyn was a great Reference Librarian for the City of Monrovia. It was a pleasure having her on my staff. Her dedication was a joy to see and be a part of. She will be missed, but the Library she built can serve well as a memorial to her work.

I never had the honor of meeting Carolyn - but anyone who loves books is a friend of mine.

May you be at peace and what countless lives you will have touched by your hard work on the new library.

I will keep the family in my prayers.
