On April nineteenth, two thousand twenty-five at 7:17 PM our daughter, granddaughter, niece, cousin, soul mate, friend, Caroline Grace Spaulding, died.
Caroline was born on October first of nineteen ninety-five at 8:50 PM. She was twenty-nine years and two hundred days of age at the time of her death. She was surrounded by her parents, family and love of her life, who lovingly, tenderly, sorrowfully and with great anguish bid her farewell.
Caroline was and remains still, faithful and true. To have been loved by Caroline was a great privilege. She loved deeply and freely. She loved to make her people laugh and was happy to offer her services as the center of attention. She was tender and kind. She was a devoted daughter and sister. She loved her canine children beyond measure, Evan, Rowan, Charlie, Gracie, Cooper, Piper, Jackson. They will certainly suffer great sorrow from her absence.
She was unwavering in her devotion, commitment, and passion for Nathaniel Quinton Sanders, her Q. Their love story will continue in another sphere.
Caroline considered so many to be her friends. From her co-workers, her family, the hospital staff at University of Kentucky, to the cashier at the corner food mart. The dearest of her friends was her cousin, Olivia Jane Gaba Lambdin and grade school friend, Meghan Ross. Surely her absence in their daily life will be felt for years and years to come.
Caroline was yearned for before conception, an answered prayer in utero, and the greatest of blessings and gifts upon birth. Caroline Grace will continue to be cherished for all eternity. We will do our best to honor her in all of our days to come.
