In addition to the love she had for her family, Carolyn/Mom loved buying and selling antiques, shopping and negotiating the deal, refinishing a piece that seemed beyond repair, woodworking, laying floors, you name it she could do it and loved every moment spent. However, above all, Carolyn/Mom loved talking. She will be dearly remembered for sharing her creative ideas and extraordinary talent. She taught us all how to be strong and persevere. She was the epitome of hard work and achievement. Her parents raised her well and will now take her back into the fold.
