Carolyn is survived by: daughter Sarah, son-in-law Norm, grandson Jeremy and grandson Matthew Vigeant; daughter Becky, son-in-law Grover, III and grandson Grover, IV Farwell; daughter Abby South, Darryl Berleth and grandson Zach Wales; ex-husband Robert South; sister Barbara, nephew Troy and nephew Malique Shepherd; niece Danielle Andersen and family; nephew Seth Shepherd and family; grandniece Annie Larsson and family; grandniece Emma Langston and family; and multiple long lost cousins newly discovered.
