My Grandma always loved her grandkids and she was always willing to help me. She invited me into her home and to stay with her most of the time . When she asks me to get something for her or help her clean I did it without questioning she always did her part as a grandmother and we would always laugh and talk and I'll never forget her and what she did for me. I miss her so much.
I am so sorry to hear of Carlyn's passing. My heart is aching. LPHS class of 83 has lost another jewel. May God Bless your family. Deborah Penn Hairston

Ms. Carolyn was a neighbor and friend of the Blankenship crew. She never met a stranger and was kind to everyone that moved on Blankenship. She and I became friends through her grandkids and I helped her out any way I could to make it easier for her when it came to the schools. She will be missed and I am so sadden to hear of her passing.
Our staff will continue to keep your family in our prayers. We thank you for allowing us to serve your family.
