A memorial service will be held at two o'clock in the Liberty Corner Presbyterian Church on Friday afternoon, May 27, 2011.

A longtime resident of Summit, she gave tremendous support to community organizations, volunteering at Planned Parenthood, the Central Presbyterian Church and Overlook Hospital, and serving on the boards of Planned Parenthood and Kessler Rehabilitation Institute. More recently, she served on the board of Frost Valley YMCA.
Carolyn was a co-owner of the English Farm in Liberty Corner, N.J., where she spent much of her time with her family and friends. She loved working in the garden surrounded by children and frequently hosted field trips for elementary school children at the farm.
