Gary,
I just saw this and it made me so sad. I used to hang out with you all and I remember when Carol met you . I was at your wedding ! Carol was such a wonderful person and such a good friend to me during those tough high school years. I will always treasure the years we were so close. So many sleepovers- so many adventures we had.
So sorry for your loss.

Carolyn was a precious soul, and I will never forget her or her zealous, protective love for her family. May she rest in peace. I was privileged to be her Dad's next door neighbor, and honored to get to meet his loving daughter.
