Class_of_1953 Carolyn Goodroe Garrett , S.S. Class of '52 Posted by MarileeRobertson53 at 11:51, on Thursday, October 19, 2006
Some Scrappers are aware, but some probably are not, that Carolyn resides in the Graceland Care Center in Oxford, Ms. She has several health problems and is mostly confined to a wheelchair, but her wit and sense of humor has never left her. I do believe all the workers and employees, all the residents, and all visitors know Carolyn. Carolyn loves her Scrapper friends, and loves to reminisce. She doesn't get the chance to go out very often and loves to have visitors and receive cards. A visit with her does the visitor more good than you can imagine. Please remember Carolyn and get a card off to her sometime. Her address is Graceland Care Center of Oxford, 1301 Belk Blvd., Oxford, MS 38655
