We were very close friends in high school (Tech), and when she and Jimmie were first married. Your Mom, her sister, Marolyn and I were "best girl friends" along with several others. Even danced with the "Techettes Dance Team"! My, how much fun we all had together. Sadly, we lost touch over the years. We were hoping to get to see her at the Reunion this Nov. We look forward to reuniting with her in Heaven one day. We share in your sorrow. Gail Bell Arnold and Freddie Arnold

We will miss Carolyn's infectious laugh and the way her laughter could light up a room. Carolyn had a very kind, giving and loving nature. Our only regret is that we were not made aware of how quickly she was going to be taken from our lives.

Cindy, Tami, and Jim, so sorry to hear of the loss of your precious "Momma". Each of you and your successful lives are a testament to her strength and yours. Remember the good times and know that she won't be suffering any physical ailments when she joins Jimmie and her other loved ones that have passed before.
