Carolyn loved her family and her friends. She was quite the character and had a special way of making people laugh. She was a wonderful cook and oftentimes would feed many of her sons friends as well as housing and caring for many of them. Carolyn graduated high school and went to further her education, she became a hair dresser and in years to follow owned her own hair salon called Hairloom Salon. Carolyn loved to collect elephants she even had a special way they all needed to face I thought it was silly but she explained it to me perfectly so I would understand.
Carolyn loved to go to the casino but she really liked to let lose and dance, she absolutely loved to dance and have fun. She was also on a bowling league with Rose Surabian her mother in law she will be greatly missed.
This is a special verse we have chosen for her. Revelations 21:4-"And God shall wipe away all tears from their eyes,; and there shall be no more death, neither sorrow, nor crying, neither shall there be any more pain: for the former things are passed away. We choose this verse because it seems fitting for us all.
