  8. Karolyn came into my life in 2014 when she was living with my dad. In 2015 I had my 1st born, Karolyn taught me so much about being a new mom, gave me great advice in which I passed down when I had my youngest. She always talked about her daughters and how much she loved them. She had the biggest heart, funny, smart, and very caring. She thought about others before she thought about herself. She’s one of the strongest and bravest people that I know. When I was pregnant with my 1st, she’d help me if needed be. She was such a loving and caring woman. I miss you, Karolyn and how kind you were to me when I first met you. I wish you were still here.

  9. I just found out that Karolyn passed and I am so sad. I was trying to reconnect on facebook. I worked with her at Waban. She was so sweet and kind to me. It was one of the lowest points in my life and she offered so much love and support. I will always have her in my heart. Fly high sweet friend.
