Googling people is fraught with risk and in this case I discover that Carolyn, one of my favorite people in the world, has been gone for a year. Although I moved from Florida 35 years ago, and we lost touch, she stayed in my thoughts. I still have the last correspondence I received from her where she detailed the antics of employees we both knew, with her usual wry, entertaining sense of humor. She was a very special person and, regardless of time and distance, I feel the hole she leaves. I'm sure those who knew her until the end are deeply grieving and I am so sorry for your loss.
