Carolyn (“Princess”) was deeply loved by all who knew her. She was a magnet for good people and had many wonderful friendships. She was independent with a mind of her own with lots of personality and spunk. For years, she enjoyed all the activities at St. John’s recreation program including all the dances and formals. She loved her church, Sacred Heart, where she felt welcomed and loved. She was a joy and a blessing in our lives and we will treasure memories of the time we had with her.
