Carolyn was awesome! Awesome in her dedication and care for her husband, Jack. Carolyn was awesome in her love of friends and animals, especially any sad looking pet needing shelter and a place to be loved. Awesome in her skills and ability to achieve. Carolyn was awesome in her ability to laugh, make all around laugh and enjoy life. Awesome in her ability to look forward with enthusiasm and excitement and to love people! Carolyn was just awesome!
