Carolyn was born in Arkansas City, Kansas.

She graduated from Tarleton State University in 1990 Summa Cum Laude with a degree in Criminal Justice. She was retired at her death and was a member of the First Christian Church, Stephenville, Texas.
Carolyn will be remembered for her fiercely loyal friendships, her endless dedication, her strong will, and her boundless love.
