Thank you all for these wonderful memories and loving condolences. Mom was so many great things to so many people. But above all she loved life and worked her magic to somehow never disappoint.
An example to all who knew her and one that will be impossible to replace. As her son, I am so thankful for her love and support of my family. I pray that God will pass along all of her passion and love for "all things good" to my children and grandchildren.

Love you all in Jesus' name, Mike Robinson

Carolyn was a wonderful lady and a very talented 4-H leader. We especially valued her advice and patient guidance in foods, home furnishings, and fine arts. She also was a valued leader in Chi Chapter Psi Iota Xi. She will long be remembered as a much appreciated mentor to so many.
Prayers for the family.

I too was a recipient of her 4-H teachings and learned about judging clothing contests she took me to during my 4-H years. Her yeast roll recipe is a holiday staple at our family gatherings to this day! Thank you, Aunt Carolyn. Prayers to my cousins and their families. Love,

Heaven Scent

Carolyn will be missed by all. During my years at Purdue, she and Kean always had an open door. It always seemed like there was a meal ready no matter when I arrived and I greatly appreciated her and Kean's support, encouragement and hospitality. Debbie and I will keep her, Kean and the Robinson family and friends in our thoughts and prayers. Go Boilers!

Dear Kean and Family,

I am so very sorry -- Carolyn was always a great cousin, too ---- added to her long list of attributes. I have many fond memories of the cousins playing together down at Grandma and Grandpa's. I have a treasured picture of us walking together with our "pinkies" hooked at the State Fair during our teen age years.

November 20, 2018

I am sorry for your loss. May the God of comfort sustain you and your family during this difficult time. My sincere condolences.

Sympathy for your loss. Losing some one you love in death is never easy, but please remember you are not alone. God promises He is with those who are broken hearted.

I am sorry for your loss. At First Corinthians 15:26, God promises he will put an end to death and tears. May God give you peace and strength to endure this tough time.

Please accept my deepest and heartfelt condolences at this time of your loss. May the God who "binds up the brokenhearted" and "comforts all who mourn" sustain your family during this difficult time. Isaiah 61:1, 2

I remember riding in the backseat of her car holding onto a basket (no seat belts). I don't remember who was driving but the basket contained my newborn cousin...Kim❤. Seems a short time ago.....I remember being included in a swimming pool invitation somewhere in Brookston with my cousins and being loaned my first and only 2 piece swim suit. I remember and still have a memory book given to me for Christmas....still have it and a pencil with my name printed on it( how did she do that?) I remember her kitchen, the cooking smells, the busy commotion of family gatherings , but most of all the smiling inclusion in her family's life...thank you, Aunt Carolyn and I will always remember you ♥
