Carolyn was a cherished resident of Moss Bluff for over 50 years. A devoted member of Glad Tidings Church, she found deep joy in her faith and church community. Carolyn had a love for nature, often found planting vibrant flowers in her garden and feeding the birds that visited. She also had a creative spirit, enjoying arts and crafts, as well as treasured moments shopping with her daughters. Above all, Carolyn's greatest joy was spending quality time with her children and grandchildren, creating lasting memories that will be fondly remembered by all who knew her. She enjoyed having a husband that she could depend on and loved her unconditionally.
