Carolyn Harrell

Carolyn B. Harrell crossed over and officially became a strong alto in the heavenly choir upon her passing at home on Saturday, October 16, 2021.  She was born on February 16, 1931 to the late Reverend R. J. Bryant and Virginia Hilliard Bryant.  She was a loving mother, sister, aunt, and grandmother to her 9 grandchildren, 12 great-grandchildren, and 10.5 great, great- grandchildren, as well as many others whom she adopted into her family “by heart”. Her beautiful smile and bubbly personality were cherished by all and will not soon be forgotten.  Her strong faith and joyful spirit bubbled up from the love of her Savior and Lord, and overflowed to many through her musical talents, her teaching, and her radiant smile.  She was a member of Robinhood Road Baptist Church where she served as a Sunday School teacher to the Lydia Class, sang in the choir, and played accompaniment on the piano and organ.  Her church family not only enjoyed hearing her sing, but they loved to “watch” her sing as well.  Her beautiful smile and love of life were contagious.  She graduated from Mineral Springs High School and recently attended her 70th reunion.  Mrs. Harrell retired from the NC Baptist Hospital in 1992 with 25+ years of service as secretary to the Director of the Department of Chaplaincy.  During those years she assisted many applicants through the Clinical Pastoral Education (CPE) program and later worked part-time at the CareNet Counseling Center.  Ms. Harrell is survived by her three children, James Clark Monson (Sarah) of Sanford, NC, Kenneth Scott Monson (Julia) of Cedar Hills, MO, and Linda Kaye Monson Lunsford (Sam) of Lewisville, NC.  Two services will be held to accommodate friends and family preferences due to COVID restrictions: On Thursday, October 21 at 2:00 pm., a memorial service will be held at Robinhood Road Baptist Church, 5422 Robinhood Road in Winston-Salem with COVID guidelines followed (wearing of masks is appreciated, but not mandatory).  A graveside service will be held at the Lewisville Baptist Church Cemetery, 125 Lewisville Clemmons Road in Lewisville at 11:00 a.m. on Friday, October 22.  The Reverend John Hackworth will officiate.  Family will greet friends immediately following both services.  In lieu of flowers, memorials can be made to Robinhood Road Baptist Church Music Ministry. The family wishes to honor and thank the caregivers from Trellis Supportive Care and ComForCare Home Care for their kindness, skill, and compassion demonstrated.
