Carolyn was born on March 12, 1938, in Riddle, NC, to the late Floyd and Nellie Forbes. She spent her career in the insurance industry, retiring from Tankersley Insurance in Augusta, GA. She was a member of Christ’s Sanctified Holy Church from her youth, serving in later years as a member of the church’s governing Board and helping to lead the congregation and care for the facilities of the church campground with her late husband.
Those who will miss and remember Carolyn with their own special memories are her brother, Everett Forbes of Glen Allen, VA; her sister-in-law, Sandy Forbes of Frisco, TX; her brother-in-law, Robert Williams of Perry, GA; her sister-in-law, Lynn Williams of Columbia, SC; her nephews, Darryl Forbes (Sandra) of Green Cove Springs, FL, Ryan Forbes of Los Angeles, CA, and Andy Forbes of Frisco, TX; her nieces, Bonnie Goldman (Gibbs) of Rockville, VA, and Priscilla Roth (Philip) of Centralia, WA; ten great-nephews and great-nieces; and nine great-great-nephews and great-great-nieces.
Carolyn was preceded in death by her parents; her loving and devoted husband of nearly fifteen years, Albert Williams; her brother, Reginald Forbes; her sister-in-law, Fay Forbes; and her nephew, Reginald Floyd “Little Floyd” Forbes.
The family is grateful that Carolyn’s last months were enriched by many special people. She looked forward to the companionship she treasured at the weekly lunch outings of her special ladies’ group. Of great blessing to Carolyn was the thoughtful, sacrificial care given to her by her friends, ladies on the campground. And Kindred Hospice was also on Carolyn’s team, for which the family is so thankful.
