Carolyn enjoyed cooking, playing card games, and all crafts. Carolyn loved to bake pies and cookies, in fact the last few years of her life she didn?t go a day without a cookie if she could help it. She will always be remembered as that person that didn?t finish the day without dessert; our family "cookie monster". A loving mother, grandmother, great grandmother, aunt and friend will be dearly missed by all and remembered for her wonderful sense of humor. She was often referred to as a hero to many of her family members; just an amazing woman.
