Aunt Caroline always had a smile on her face and was a kind, loving lady. We are blessed to have had her in our lives

My thoughts and prayers go out to the family at this very sad time. I have many fond memories of Caroline. She made the best peanut butter cookies, and just when it turns to dusk she would patrol the streets collecting her children one by one. She always will hold a special place in my heart.
