Dear Brian and family,

Although time and space has changed, I know we counted on enjoying our times when we saw Carolyn and Brian.

Dear Brian and family,

We are in deep sadness over the loss of Carolyn. She was a DEAR friend to us for nearly 30 years. Although time and space has changed, I know we counted on enjoying our times when we saw Carolyn and Brian. She had a non-stop positive demeanor and energy that made her a wonderful nurse and colleague. We will continue to pray for your family during this time of grieving and look forward to that grand reunion in heaven.
We felt so blessed to watch the live-stream of the memorial service. A beautiful tribute to a beautiful person.

Words cannot express how saddened I was to hear this news. I pray for you, Brian, your sons and the rest of the family, that God will be with you today and each day for the coming weeks and months. Carolyn was a beautiful person, always smiling and laughing; she knew how to make people happy. She was a wonderful nurse being both expert and caring for each of her patients and skillful and supportive for each one of her colleagues. I know she will be greatly missed by all. John 16:22

My prayers are extended to you Brian as well as all members of Carolyn’s immediate family. Also to her extended family, especially to Victor with who I am better acquainted. I had the pleasure of being one of Carolyn's work associates and admired her for her leadership skills and ability.

You are not alone in your sorrow. We share in your grief and pray that God will give you comfort as you mourn Carolyn’s death.

My heart could not be more heavy over Carolyn's passing. Although our paths took us in different directions over the years, I will always remember what a special person, nurse and friend she was to me. Carolyn had a way of lighting up a room and always made you feel so special and that you mattered to her. I met Carolyn as a new nurse working in PICU at KMC and I owe much of what I learned how to

My heart could not be more heavy over Carolyn's passing. Although our paths took us in different directions over the years, I will always remember what a special person, nurse and friend she was to me. Carolyn had a way of lighting up a room and always made you feel so special and that you mattered to her. I met Carolyn as a new nurse working in PICU at KMC and I owe much of what I learned how to be a great nurse from her. One of my most special memories I shared with Carolyn was my 30th birthday celebration. What a fun night! That was just the thing about her. No matter the occasion, if Carolyn was there, you could count on laughing more than you could imagine! Her joy and zeal for life was infectious and and gift to us all. My thoughts, prayers and love go to Brian, their boys and the rest of Carolyn's family and friends.

Carolyn was one of my favorite people I ever met in my life and Brian as well. So sorry for your loss Brian much love, Lise

My first memory of Carolyn was that of a mother bringing her kids to Camp Mohaven when I was nature director/nurse. She never minded when her sons collected creatures or got dirty. Then she became the mom who brought Brian to puppet team practice and came to all of our teams performances. She was upbeat, smiling and such fun to be around. For the last several years I have worked with her in her role as nurse manager of CCU.She

Then she became the mom who brought Brian to puppet team practice and came to all of our teams performances. She was upbeat, smiling and such fun to be around. For the last several years I have worked with her in her role as nurse manager of CCU.She was always concerned about her staff and how they were doing. The last conversation I had with Carolyn was in her office. She was thinking of Brian and her two sons Brian and Joshua. First off she was a loving mom and wife. When I would talk to her about the guys she would beam with pleasure. She wasn't ready to leave everyone yet, but leave she did with such courage and perseverance. I will miss you Carolyn. My thoughts, prayers and love go to Brian, Brian Jr. Josh, Mrs. Elliott and the rest of the family.

I will always remember Carolyn with that wonderful smile of hers. She was always such a happy person and her face would light up when talking about her family. Carolyn was also an excellent nurse, and I feel privileged to have known and worked with her.

Carolyn was the charge nurse who taught me never to settle when I could do or be more. Her confidence was amazing as she taught me so many things about being a nurse. I've often thought about her over the past few years. My heart and prayers are for her family, for peace and comfort.

Carolyn you are with God now, where she will receive what she deserves, everlasting peace and joy. He's knows what a truly remarkable, intelligent, loving and caring woman you were, and that you were a gift to all who knew you. Your legacy are your beautiful sons and husband, plus all those who you made such a difference in their lives. Your time here on earth was well spent. You have been a wonderful wife, mother, friend and caregiver to

Carolyn you are with God now, where she will receive what she deserves, everlasting peace and joy. He's knows what a truly remarkable, intelligent, loving and caring woman you were, and that you were a gift to all who knew you. Your legacy are your beautiful sons and husband, plus all those who you made such a difference in their lives. Your time here on earth was well spent. You have been a wonderful wife, mother, friend and caregiver to so many. We all owe your such a debit of gratitude for that. May your memory be eternal as we say in Greek. And it will by all those left behind. I remember the camaraderie between those of us from PICU, and those after work get-togethers. So many wonderful memories. You and Brian were always the life of the party. Your humor and laughter was always so much a part of you both. God Please watch over her children and her husband who was so much a part of Carolyn. It breaks my heart and devastated to have learned of her passing. The things I will always remember is her big heart and that huge big smile whenever she saw you. Please again be with her family and friends, this a huge loss and leaves a hole that cannot ever be filled.

I not only had the pleasure of working with Carolyn for several years she also took care of me when I was a patient. My deepest sympathy to Brian and the family in the loss of such a great person and nurse
