Carolyn’s Story

Site created on May 21, 2021

Carolyn has unofficially been diagnosed with an aggressive case of Lewy Body Dementia (LBD).  She has been declining rapidly since this last fall of 2020.  There is no known cure, and we are trying to give her as much comfort as possible here at our home in Reno. We are using this website to keep family and friends updated in one place. We appreciate your support and words of hope and encouragement. Thank you for visiting.

Russ & family

Carolyn peacefully passed away surrounded by those closest to her on June 14th. She will be dearly missed, may she Rest In Peace.

Her loving husband, Russ
