I’m so sorry for your loss. Carolyn was a vivacious and caring woman who watched out for so many. I danced with her, laughed with her and even cried with her. Carolyn’s light shines on. My prayers for her family. Joan Faber Jaconette

To the family of my beloved cousin/ friend Carolyn June Price. I loved Carolyn as if she was my sister. She was my confidant without judgement. When I was a little girl and she was a young teenager, she was my babysitter while Cousin Eva and Uncle Moses went to work. She was always full of laughter and great fun. We never lost touch with each other over the years. I will greatly miss Carolyn. I pray God will give strength, peace, and fond memories of Carolyn that will sustain you. Love, Sylvia Morrison and family

Carol and I met in 1977, I was her nail tech. I remember her bringing her small son Sam Jr. with her. Due to our friendship, my life has been enriched by that small boy, his wife Chari and his 3 children and father Sam Sr. whom I love dearly. Thank you Carol for sharing your family with me. I will always be indebted to you. RIP. God bless the entire Adam's family. Iris McCain, Chicago

To Cynthia Price, Marjorie Patton and the family of Carolyn J. Price, May God give you comfort and peace through this time of your bereavement. Carolyn would say: Weep not for me though I have gone into that gentle night Grieve if you will, but not for long Upon my soul's sweet fight I am at peace; my soul is at rest There is no need for tears For with your love I was so blessed for all those many years There is no pain I suffer not the fear is now gone Put now these things out of your thoughts In your memory I live on Remember not the strife, please do not dwell upon my death But celebrate my life.
