Carolyn Ann Leclerc passed from this life on Saturday, January 22nd. She was our daughter’s mother-in-law, a good mother to her two sons and a loving grandmother to the grandchildren we shared. Michael and Sandi were truly blessed to have been able164754_1876153902912_1213151363_2365289_7487474_n[1] to call her “grandmother”.

She will surely be missed. Our thoughts and prayers are certainly with Robert and his family at this time.

  2. May happy memories sustain those who loved Carolyn Ann through these very difficult times. I offer these words as comfort for your son-in-law.


    I am standing upon the seashore
    A ship at my side spreads her white sails and
    Starts for the blue ocean.
    She is the object of beauty and strength
    And I stand and watch her until she
    is just a speck of white cloud
    where the sea and the sky come
    to mingle with each other.
    Then someone at my side says,
    "There, she's gone."
    Gone where? Gone from my sight, that is all.
    She is just as large in mast and hull and spar
    As she was when she left my side,
    And she is just as able to bear her
    living load to her destined port.
    Her diminished size is in me, not in her.
    And just at the moment when someone at my side says,
    "There she goes!" there are other
    eyes watching her coming, and
    other voices ready to take up
    the glad shout,
    "There she comes!"

    And that is dying.
