Ms. Carolyn Beason

Carolyn was a loyal and devoted wife, mother, sister, aunt, and friend whose life was defined by her unwavering love for her family. Her greatest joy was her son, Dale, and she always placed her family above all else. She was a woman of quiet strength, kind heart, and steadfast faithfulness whose love and guidance will be cherished forever.

A 1963 graduate of Ashville High School, Carolyn continued her education at Gadsden Business College. During her lifetime, she became a Master Gardener, taking great pride in cultivating beautiful flowers and plants. She found joy in reading, especially novels, and treasured the peaceful moments spent with a good book.

While attending high school, Carolyn met Gene Beason. The two were married in 1964 and shared more than 50 wonderful years together. As Gene faithfully served in the United States Army, Carolyn embraced the opportunity to travel alongside him, creating treasured memories throughout their years of military life. Together they built a home filled with love, laughter, and unwavering devotion.

She was preceded in death by her husband, Gene Beason; her parents; her infant sister, Mary Joyce Whisnant; and her sister, Vernice Morgan.
