Carrie Lynn Wooten

Carrie Lynn Wooten went to be with our Lord on October 6, 2024. Carrie was born on September 7, 1953, in Greenville, North Carolina and was the youngest daughter of Charles Henry Wooten, Sr. and the late Bettie Louise Gorham Wooten of Washington, DC.

She graduated from The University of the District of Columbia with honors, completing a Bachelor of Science degree in Education. Carrie later worked at the White House in Washington, DC for several years, but then decided to return to school and become a Paralegal for two law firms in Washington, DC. Carrie was a devout member of Our Lady Queen of Peace Catholic Church, Arlington, Virginia, and treasured volunteering at the church until she could no longer participate.
