Carolyn was preceded in death by her sister Ruth Holmes. Carolyn was a devoted wife, mother, grandmother and great grandmother. She was a selfless, compassionate friend to all who knew her. She graduated from Poland Seminary High School class of 1954. She married her high school sweetheart, Tom, in 1956 and together they embarked on a journey together that lasted 63 years. This journey took them from coast to coast while raising their family. Eventually these travels ended in Escondido California in 1979 where they put down roots and entered into a family business which is still in operation today.
