Went to be with her Lord and Savior on Tuesday, June 20, 2023, at the age of 75 after an eight-year battle with dementia. Born August 15, 1947, to Woody and Maggie (Wharton) Engle in Saginaw, Michigan, Carolyn retired from the state of Michigan where she worked as an Executive Secretary in the Department of Commerce.

She will be especially missed by her husband of 37 years, Andrew Such and her special friend and care giver Nicole Frank.
