To know Carolyn was to love her. From her smiling face, giggly laugh and infectious personality. She loved to travel with her favorite adventure partner -niece, Jenifer and they were guaranteed to have a good time. She spread love and happiness anywhere she went and her love of Jesus Christ was always in the forefront as she shared her love of Christ and gave testimony to all she could and even those most thought were unreachable. Carolyn loved to paint on canvas for fun and she shared her pieces of art to spread joy to others. She could on occasion be known to try her hand in Hobbs with her best friend Debbie. Spending time with her family and friends made her the happiest and she was considered to be a hot mess express and she liked it. She loved her slower years in Monahans after her retirement from her fast-paced life in Fort Worth. Finally, she was home where her roots ran deep.
