Carolyn was a great friend & coworkers. We first met at 1989 @ SJH in MICU. She was also a mentor to me being a new employee at the time. Carolyn was a wealth of knowledge, a great teacher, strong patient advocate. & a leader at the bedside. She was greatly loved & be missed tremendously. Carolyn was an angel on Earth & now has gained her Heavenly wings. My condolences to her family & friends
