Letitia Harper wrote a sympathy message

“To the entire Colquitt family, the passing of Carolyn opens a very deep hole in my heart We shared a lot of good times together, and she would often come to Knoxville just to check in on my 97 year old mom (whom she called mama too). I'm taking a deep breath and trying to concentrate on the promises Jehovah has made to all of us, that "on his timeline" he will bring our loved ones back! For the family left behind... please know that she believed that with all her heart. ISIAH 55:11”
