What a courageous and beautiful woman that I had the privilege to know briefly. So thoughtful. Her smile, beautiful eyes and so sincere "thank you" for the smallest of things I did for her. Mrs. Abbott has left a positive spot on my heart.

Carolyn was a bright candle in my life.
So sorry she had to leave so early, but her smile and sweet sense of humor lives on.
