Carolyn was born on January 18, 1934 to the late William Henry Webster and Margaret Mae Higgins Webster. Carolyn was a graduate of Waynesburg High School.

Carolyn's love of animals was evident through her dedication to the Greene County Horseman's Association, in addition to being a leader of the 4-H Horse and Pony Club. Throughout her life Carolyn surrounded herself with animals, whether it was riding horses, helping George with cattle, having one of the family dogs by her side or providing a home to cats who needed her love. She leaves behind her beloved cats "Snoopy" and "Daisy Mae" who brought her much joy the past years.

Carolyn and George were not blessed with their own children but loved and nurtured many children over the years. Through her time as Sunday School Teacher and director of the children's Christmas Programs, Carolyn shared her love with all. Nieces, nephews, God-children, neighbors, children of the church and so many others were showered with her love.

Carolyn began her professional career as a bookkeeper for VanDruff Tractor Sales of Waynesburg. From there she became the longtime secretary and bookkeeper for Wayne Lumber Company, where she became part of the Headlee family. Carolyn also served as secretary of the Greene County Fair Board for many years.

Carolyn was a member of Fairall United Methodist Church where she shared her love of the Lord with others as a certified lay speaker, Sunday school teacher, choir director, among other leadership roles within the church. As a lay speaker, Carolyn shared the Word of the Lord at many churches in Greene County and the surrounding area. During festivals and dinners Carolyn shared her famous butterscotch pies. She was also well-known for her buckwheat "cakes".

She is survived by her God-daughters Edith and Helen and many nieces and nephews. Deceased, in addition to her parents and husband, are her step-mother Catherine Sprowls Webster and her brother Jackson Collins Webster.
