Not sure what to say?

It was an honor to have known her.

My sister, Carolyn, was a wonderful, generous, thoughtful person, a true fire spirit who added much joy to the many people in her life. It was very difficult to watch her go through the last two years of this illness. We will all miss this generous spirit in our lives. We are enriched to have her children and grandchildren as part of our lives as well as her husband who took such great care of her during a difficult time.

My thoughts and prayers to the family. I did not know Carolyn, but I too have Scleroderma and am involved with the Scleroderma Foundation Oregon Chapter. May eternal rest grant unto her O Lord and let perpetual light shine upon her. May she rest in peace.

What an amazing life. Condolences to your family.

What can I say, I feel so blessed our lives crossed so many years ago. You will always be in my heart. The first teacher to believe in me and make me feel like I was smart. A second Mom to me and a friend. That's a lot of shoes to fill but you did it. Thanks for taking me into your family and heart. I will never forget you. Rest In Peace Love you!

Carolyn was dearly loved by so many in life and will continue to be an inspiration to many more for years to come. May we all live as well as she.

I didn't think it was possible but I miss my sister, Carolyn, more every day. She was definitely taken way too soon.
Love to all of you. Robin

Beautiful words about dear sweet Carolyn. My husband, Brad and I ,taught Sunday school at First Presbyterian Church in Dallas with Carolyn and Allen . We became life long friends friends immediately. I loved her contagious personality and positive demeanor. She was always thinking about other people and how to make children s lives better.
