Carolyn was born in Mobile, AL on December 24, 1945, one of five children born to Austin Columbus Dixon & Lorena Tillman Dixon. She loved the Lord, her family, friends, and just people in general.

On days that she worked the cafeteria register, if a kid came through her line without any money, she would let them slide and cover their meal.
