To pass time and to keep her mind sharp, Carolyn loved reading…let's just say GOOGLE was one of her best friends! She was addicted to playing games on her PC such as spades and various word scramblers. She loved watching game shows as well, Family Feud and Jeopardy to name a few! She enjoyed fishing, baking and dancing while listening to her favorite Oldies! She also loved reminiscing of some of her favorite memories with her niece Tasha and enjoyed the special meals prepared by her sisters Linda and Thelma.
Carolyn was often called "The Master storyteller" or "The Great Philosopher" as he had plenty of stories, cliches' and words of wisdom to share with anyone who crossed her path. Her birthday was on Valentines day and she was a Sweet heart inside and out! She was the epitome of a "Strong Black Women" and will be missed immensely.
