We all loved Aunt Carolyn, she was a blast to be around. One of the trips I made with Aunt & Uncle to Austin, Texas to visit Mom. Aunt & I would go to Polar Bear Ashburn's (ice cream) and order a Hot Fudge brownie sundae.She told the girl, 'Please leave off the cherries, I am on a diet':) A lot of great memories, we will truly miss her. Our prayers are with you all.
Love, Pat and Don, Joe Don and Brody

Our Aunt Carolyn will always be in our hearts, we will miss you! We will always smile when we think of our visits, the look on her face, her shacking her head and smiling when we were talking because she could not understand anything we were saying...it was that Arkansas slang and we talk to fast!!!! Love and prayers for the family. We love you, Gayle and Ronda
