I worked with Carin in 1989-1990. I fondly remember her bringing in her electric skillet to make us one of her wonderful German recipes. I also remember her Elvis stories and stories about her past in Germany. Her face always lit up when she talked about Earl and her children. She was one of the most interesting people I have ever met and have thought about her often over the years. Please accept my sympathies during this difficult time.
