Carolyn was one of my best friends while attending Field Kindley. She was a very strong woman and knew what she wanted in her life. I will never forget the slumber party we had at my house one night. We had a BLAST with several other friends. She often called me during the days before she passed. Every time I heard the phone ring, I just knew it was her. We had many special talks about our memories while growing up and kept in touch more during retirement years. While my husband was fading away with a rare cancer, she often consoled me and we talked about God alot. She was truly a good friend to me and I really miss her!!!! I know that I will see her again soon in Heaven. I loved her very much. Goldie M. Lee (Kelley)
