I’ve has the great pleasure of working with Carolyn at Marsh for over 10 years. She was an exceptionally kind, generous and caring person and her presence will be greatly missed.
I worked out with Carolyn at Rehab and have enjoyed talking with her. She was a very caring person. I was sad when I went to rehab today and the nurses told me she had passed. RIP my friend.
My mother and I were customers at the Marsh Pharmacy and we enjoyed Carolyn’s friendship for many years. I especially loved the way Carolyn was a good listener and gave wise advice — like a mother! You are very blessed to have her for a relative. — Norma L. Rhea, for the Rhea family
I am so saddened by this news. I only knew Carolyn as a customer at the Marsh Pharmacy, but she made everyone feel like they were special. So sweet, so caring, and as another person said….she listened intently to every word I had to say. I will miss this wonderful LADY forever! God Bless Carolyn and her family
I, too, was a customer of Carolyn’s at Marsh. She was so nice and caring – always asking how my family was and going that extra mile to help everyone. She will be very missed – a wonderful lady. Sandy Hardin
I was shocked and saddened to hear about Carolyn. She worked for and with me for many years at Port O Call Pharmacy (B and F Drugs). I have only great memories of our time together. My best to you, David and of course your entire family. Leo Fang
I worked for Carolyn at Marsh Pharmacy several years ago! She was always kind! She will be missed greatly. Paula Gilmour
Our family was so blessed to have Carolyn in our lives…When I lived in Indiana, Linda would come home for the holidays, we would wait for Carolyn to get off from work at Marsh and we would all go out for family dinner to catch up. When I moved from Indiana Carolyn told me to make sure that my kids knew to contact her if they needed anything. She was always caring, kind and smiling no matter what kind of pain she was in. We will miss her dearly. Lots of love to the family. ~Patsy and kids
I ran into Carolyn on Mothers Day in Marsh. I had not seen her, since working at Dales, where Carolyn got her hair cut. Carolyn, was a wonderful person. She will be greatly missed. Prayers to the family. Judy Couch
