Several cousins, nieces and nephews and many friends that loved her dearly.
Carolyn lived most of her life in Combs; she was a hard-working woman. She drove a school bus for years, owned and operated the B&M Grocery/Café in Combs, raised chickens, dairy cows, worked in hay fields. We were blessed to have 5 generations (all girls) that Mom was so proud of. She had a great memory and could remember things that happened years ago. Her mind was great, but cancer destroyed her body. She is now free of the pain that she has endured for the last several years. We will miss her but are happy that she is home, whole and pain free! We will meet again someday.
Graveside service will be 1:00 pm Saturday April 17, 2021 in Walnut Grove Cemetery in Crosses, Arkansas under the direction of Moore’s Chapel.
Memorial contributions may be made to The Cancer Society, P.O. Box 22478, Oklahoma City, OK 73123
