Carolyn was a hoot. We made so many fun memories with her while she and Randy worked together at the Republican Party. Such a good lady. Randy and I always remember her fondly. We are so very sorry for your loss. May God be your Comforter. Looking forward to seeing her again at 'the reunion' some day! Peace.
Blessings Always,
Karla and Randy Enwright

All of you are in my prayers. I met Carolyn at Perkins Grade school. I smile remembering such fun memories as we traveled through Franklin Jr. High on to Roosevelt High School. We were so blessed to have her in our lives
