My thoughts and prayers go out to the family. She will be missed by many. Dad talked of her often, he loved all of his sisters. Carolyn was always so kind and loving to my daughter Amber and myself. God bless

My thoughts and prayers are with you at this difficult time. My Mom was Mary Finks Slavin, Ollie Curtis Finks my grandmother. Carolyn was a wonderful Christian lady. Loved to talk to her. Had not seen her for several years and had lost track of her. I haven't been to the Curtis reunion since Mom died. Carolyn will be missed by all that knew her. May God give you strength, comfort and peace during the days ahead.

Dear Bills family,
My condolences to your family, life never prepares us for such loss. The Bible promises that soon God is going to swallow up the sting of death forever! It also states that Jehovah God will wipe out all tears from our eyes and death will be no more. Rev.21:3,4. I hope these thoughts bring you some comfort during this difficult time.
