Carolyn, Mom and Granna, was born in Iredell County on March 10, 1936, daughter of the late James Harris King and Ina Mae Shaver King.  Carolyn attended Central High School and was a graduate of Appalachian State University.  She made her career as an educator, with special love for the younger ones and those in need.

She was married to her beloved husband, Paul Carson Harrington, for more than 63 years.  In addition to her husband, Paul, Carolyn is survived by her daughters, Joan Harrington, and Amy Harrington Jordan (Chad), and her precious grandsons, Ethan Cammer, Harrison Jordan, and Garrett Jordan.
