Carolyn was a happy, curly-headed little blonde with the biggest most beautiful brown eyes. She loved God, babies, mountains and the ocean, but family most of all. She was a terrific cook and made the best pot of beans and spaghetti. Carolyn loved to travel the open road whenever possible, making several cross country trips with her late husband Les. She loved her country western music and was a wonderful dancer. "Grandma Nan" loved her family and was very fond of her grandchildren and great grandchildren. There wasn't a more caring and loving person. Carolyn was a joy to be with and was always happy and joyful.
