Carolyn fought the good fight till the end. She was known for her positive attitude throughout her illness. She was always helping those newly diagnosed with cancer.
Carolyn was employed with the Louisiana Cooperative Extension Service (County Agent) prior to being employed at UL, formerly USL, for over 30 years. She worked in Continuing Education, Electrical Engineering, Kinesiology, and the College of Education as an Administrative Assistant. She served on the board of directors for the UL Credit Union. Carolyn was awarded the Charles Dunbar career service award in 2012, which is the highest honor for civil service employees. Carolyn also worked with UL's Elderhostel program and the Council on Aging. She designed the logo for the UL Marine Survival Training Center. Throughout her career at UL she was known as the "Candy Lady".
Cookie, as she was affectionately known, was an amazing person and everywhere she went she never met a stranger. Her sense of humor and caring nature were her best assets. She enjoyed being a wife, mother, grandmother, sister, aunt, and friend. Carolyn loved to travel, bird watching, flowers, calligraphy, tatting and basket weaving. She is also known for her vast collection of earrings.
The family would like to express their heartfelt appreciation to Dr. Michael Cain, Dr. David Reed, Allison Bertrand PA, and all the staff at The Cancer Center of Acadiana, Hospice of Acadiana and Calcutta House for their wonderful care throughout her illness.
