Carolyn was a proud graduate of Odessa High School, class of 1968, where she was known for her spunkie spirit and kind heart.

Carolyn's creativity knew no bounds. She was a talented crafter, skilled in painting, sewing, crochet, and floral design.

Generous, creative, and selfless-these words encapsulate the essence of Carolyn. Her ability to give without expecting anything in return was a testament to her character and the love she had for those around her.

Carolyn's love for her family was boundless. She is survived by her 3 children, all of Odessa.
