My sympathy to Carolyn's family. I have fond memories of Carolyn from school days at SS #10 Orford . With 8 grades in one room we were a close family that helped each other and played lots of baseball, tag, anti over the wood shed , fox and goose in the snow, and skated lots on Campbells pond in the field next to the school. She also was a part of the large youth church choir and Sunday school at Turin in the mid 60's. She was a strong support in her rural community roots. Take strength from her gentle manner and great memories Dawne Erb ( Wilson).

We are so sorry for the loss of your wife and mother. Carolyn was a wonderful neighbour who always had a smile and a kind word. She is known by our kids as the "fudge lady" because of the delicious homemade fudge she handed out at Halloween. She will be missed.

You fought the good fight, a more difficult one than with your 4H calves. You were giving of yourself, whether to fair board, UCW, etc. Your daughters must be so proud of you.
