Carolyn Whiting

May 20, 1943 - April 29, 2020

Carolyn Whiting, 76, was born May 20th, 1943, and received her heavenly wings April 29th, 2020. Carolyn Whiting was many things. She was a mother to Trey and Hank, a mother in law to Angela and Kim, a grandmother to Dean, Abby, Hunter, Jaxson, Henry, and Arianna, a daughter to the late Henry and Mae Williams, a sister to the late Joann, Stanley, and Henry Williams, a wife to the late Milton Whiting, and a friend to everyone- all to say that she was loved by many. For those who had the pleasure of meeting Carolyn Whiting, you know her as one of the most kind hearted, fierce, passionate, adventurous, and one of the wisest people you’ll ever meet. She was born and raised in the heart of Marietta and adored the idea of life itself. Her love for life was exemplified through her passion for gardening. She also loved baking pecan pies, cheering on the War Eagles, spending time with her grandchildren and family, and owned just about every flamingo they sold at any store. She never failed to remind the people she encountered how much Jesus loved them, and made everyone feel like they had a purpose in life- that they were truly special in their own way. Carolyn Whiting was a light to everyone she encountered, and will be missed by all. A celebration of life will be held in her remembrance at a later time.
