She was proud to be the only women at the time who passed the forklift test and would offload the semis.

When she was able to, she enjoyed traveling to NC to see her daughter Karen and granddaughter Danielle, where they spent a lot of time making memories playing games and cooking delicious foods. Carrie was blessed with being able to enjoy time with her great grandkids, Kyle, Kollin and Addisyn. They always made her laugh by telling jokes and all sorts of stories about the pranks they played on their dad and grandpa. She was always amazed at how much Addisyn liked to bounce on her knee and screech at her, it always made her smile.
