Bill Watts wrote a sympathy message

“From Bill Watts in Virginia. I am very sorry to hear of the passing of my cousin Carolyn. She was a lovely lady with a terrific sense of humor. Her sense of family was clear with her love of her girls and their families, but it went well beyond that for all of her cousins. I am pleased to count as one of them. God Bless her.”
