I just learned of Carolyn´s passing. I am so sorry for your loss. I was a staff member at Anne-Marie House for 10 years. Carolyn´s support for our program was immeasurable. She was always on the ready to fill in our volunteer gaps and was engaged with concern and care for our guest families. Her life had meaning and purpose. I am thankful for that life and Carolyn. Rest in Peace Carolyn.
