So sorry to hear of Carolyn’s passing. We graduated from high school the same year (1962), but gradually lost touch as the years went by. Although we were no longer connected, Carolyn continued to be in my thoughts and prayers. I moved to Pittsburgh five years ago and told myself, repeatedly, to get in touch with her. Sadly, I did not follow through. Carolyn was a wonderful example of God’s handiwork. May she rest in peace.
