Carolyn E. Miller, 61, of Calvary Road, passed away Dec. 12, 2012 at Franciscan Health Center surrounded by her family, friends and co-workers following a lengthy battle with ovarian cancer.

Carolyn enjoyed many hobbies and loved sharing her talents with others. She enjoyed sewing, baking, cooking, scrapbooking, knitting and crocheting. She especially enjoyed hosting an all-night Christmas cookie baking party each year and loved decorating for the Christmas season.

A special thank you to the hospice staff at St. Luke's Hospital and the staff at Franciscan Health Center for their quality care, compassion and kindness.

John: I was just informed of Carolyn's passing. We were classmates and graduated togther in 1969 from Duluth Central. I have just posted her obituary on our Facebook group page and emailed the classmates that we have current addresses for. On behalf of our class I'd like to pass on our condolences. She was very well liked in our class and we are better for having known her. In our email I sent her current photo from the obituary and her class photo.
