On February 14, 2022, Valentine’s Day, Carolyn Holden Gaither passed away peacefully in her sleep.
Carolyn was the proud daughter of Hubert and Josie Holden. She is survived by her daughter Sandra Dill (Bobby), her sons Gary Gaither (Mary) and Greg Gaither (Melissa) as well as her sister Gladys Street (Mack), and brother Charles Holden. In addition, she will be missed by her 8 grandchildren including Krystal Grogan (Chris), Kimi Thomas (Jeff), David Gaither (Allison), Ashley Gaither, Daniel Gaither (Keara), Alyssa Gaither (Joe), Ryan and Karen Gaither, and 4 great-grandchildren including Josie Gaither, Cooper Gaither, Lilly Gaither, Graham Grogan, and Jett Grogan.
It is only fitting that the Lord chose Valentine’s Day to bring her home as Carolyn had such a big heart to love and care for others. She was selfless in giving and sending cards to those in need of encouragement and healing.
Carolyn was trusting in God’s love, belief in his will, and faithful in her stewardship for his church. Her smile always made you feel special and comforted by her calm presence. On each Valentine’s Day going forward, may we be reminded of Carolyn and her loving and caring heart for others. While we will all miss her dearly, we are thankful for her life, and know that she is excited to be in the Lord’s presence. She will always be in our hearts until we meet again.
A celebration of life service will be held this Saturday, February 19, 2022, at 2:00 PM in the chapel at Moody-Connolly Funeral Home in Brevard, North Carolina.
In lieu of flowers, we encourage everyone to make a contribution to your favorite charity.
