Carolyn loved retirement with her husband Garry and made some wonderful memories travelling in their motorhome around the country. Her greatest joy was being “Meme” to her seven grandchildren and was overjoyed to have the chance to meet her great granddaughter.
If you knew Carolyn, you knew what a big personality she had. She was outspoken, highly intelligent, and loved BIG. She was incredibly protective of those she loved and had the gift of making one feel important and special to her in her own way.
