As a little girl, some people knew her as 'the little girl with the really long hair.' Others identified her as the daughter of J.V. and Jeffrey King; a notable insurance sales representative and a teacher. Her name was Carolyn Jean King, born July 16, 1951, in Austin, Texas. Although she was an only child, her childhood was filled with joy from the love showered upon her by her wonderful parents, enjoying travels as a family, attending dance classes, and playing with friends.
Carolyn graduated from S.F. Austin High School, 'Class of 69'. She later received her B.A. and Masters' degrees from St. Edwards University in Austin, Texas.
Carolyn married Robert Maxwell after her high school graduation, moved to Atlanta, and was blessed with one son, Kevin.
Later, Carolyn and her young son returned to Austin with her mother and a new chapter opened in her life. She reconnected with her first love as a teenager, Harry Mercer. GOD had plans for this couple. They reunited and married.
Carolyn also found joy and fulfillment in her work at Texas Commission of Environmental Quality. Her work with the Mickey Leland Internship Program that helped hundreds of young people launch successful careers gave her great pleasure and she dearly loved each of her interns.
