So sorry to hear about my friend Carolyn. When I was working at the Helena Post Office she was very good at getting my parts needed for the mail trucks. I could always count on her. She will be missed by many, but especially her loving family.

It deeply saddens me of the passing of CC. She was very sweet to my daughter, Kelly Faye; granddaughter, Bailee Layne; and especially to Gene. Everyone will miss her so much. Our lives will be a little less complete without her. Blessings to all who knew and loved her.
