After the military, they settled down in Ponca City, Oklahoma, where they welcomed two children into their home: Lei Lani in October of 1962, and Rebecca in June of 1965. On December 4, 1966, Carolyn was in a plane crash and lost the love of her life. She was in the hospital for two and a half months learning to walk again. Carolyn remarried the second love of her life, Norman Myers, on October 28, 1970, in Ponca City, which added three more children to the family. In 1973, Norm and Carolyn moved their family to Buffalo because they loved small towns and the area. They continued living in Buffalo until her death.
In addition to raising her family Carolyn was an active and dedicated member of Summit Wesleyan Church. Carolyn was devoted to her Lord and Savior throughout her entire life. She was a generous individual who loved camping, fishing, boating, knitting, quilting, gardening, canning, baking, cooking, reading, but her passion was her family. She truly loved all her fifteen grandchildren and two and a half great-grandchildren. Her children remember her as a kind, gentle, patient mother who encouraged them to pursue their goals. She was always very supportive in all that they did.
