Carolyn was such a sweet person,who would help anybody. She was a very elegant lady. I came to know her in the parking lot at St James School. She would be picking up Grandchildren (which she was so proud of). In fact she and I and Sharon Gill would get there early each day so we could chat. So much fun,so many years ago. I hadn't seen her in a while,but was saddened to learn of her death. My thoughts and prayers for the family
