Carolyn or “Corky” as she was known by family and friends, was a lifelong resident of Johnson County. She was born and raised in Overland Park where she lived until 1999 before moving to Shawnee. Carolyn was a graduate of Shawnee Mission (North) High School.
She began her career in banking at Overland Park State Bank. She continued her work at Mission State Bank and was employed by the FDIC before taking an administrative position with Marion Laboratories. She retired from Quintiles and took a part-time position with Walmart. On February 14, 2016 Carolyn was injured on the job. Carolyn was told she would never breathe on her own again. However, due to God’s plan, her sheer will to live and with the help of a respiratory nurse named Sharon, she weaned herself off life support. She spent the last two years in rehabilitation facilities inspiring those who crossed her path. Carolyn’s perpetual smile, confidence and fortitude were a blessing to all who met her. She knew our Lord had a plan for her and did her best to follow it. Those that knew Carolyn saw God’s grace and mercy reflected in her, until her moment of passing. Carolyn loved the outdoors. Her hobbies included gardening and bird watching. She was an avid animal lover who always kept several dogs and cats. She was a lover of movies and fresh popped popcorn. Her passion, however, was her grandchildren. Spending the night with grandma was pure enjoyment.
