Debbie; members of the Lueckenotte Family: While we are mourning the loss of our dear friend Carolyn, others are rejoicing to meet her behind the veil. Your Mother always had a smile with a laugh ready for us – we will miss her dearly. The angels are always near to those who are grieving, to whisper to them that their loved one is safe in the hand of God. Hugs, Deb. ~ Cindy Benward
Leonard, Debbie & the entire Lueckenotte Family….. I have known dear Carolyn since we were young ladies. Always a smile on her face & a kind word on her lips. We will all miss that! My favorite thoughts of Carolyn in recent years are in relation to her sincere appreciation of all the Cancer Survivor events that she attended…many with her Debbie. No matter what she was experiencing with pain or anxiety, she ALWAYS made a point to thank those Survivor Committee members who were volunteering! Loved that about her. Her journey here is complete, but she left her mark! ❤️ Ruth Braun
Debbie and Family.. My deepest sympathy to your family. I have only known Carolyn for a short time, but it has been my pleasure assisting with her care the past few months. She was always so appreciative of the help she was given, and never uttered a complaint about anything. She had a beautiful smile , as well as personality. I know she will be missed terribly by your family, but treasure all the happy memories you have of her. I know she is reaping the rewards in Heaven for a life well lived. May she rest in peace. Thanks for sharing her with us!! I will miss her .
Carolyn was a lovely lady. We worked with her at the National Guard. Condolences to the family. Larry & Dana Zimmerman
God Bless you Carolyn. The short time I knew you, you were an beautiful lady inside and out. You will be missed.
Debbie and Ann I am so sorry for your loss. Prayers for comfort in the days ahead.
Carolyn was a wonderful part of our lives. All the years at the MO National Guard Military Academy were much more enjoyable and smarter with her! She was a great person and we thought a lot of her. She will be missed by many. God bless her family. CSM (Ret) William “Skip” and Eva Rich
