"I've not seen Karolyn since we were at school together (Gilbert Inglefield and then Vandyke Upper School) but was so shocked and saddened when I read her obituary in our local paper – I thought that can't be the Karolyn I knew, she's too young to have gone. My memories of her are of a huge smile, lots of blonde 'flicky' hair, an amazing pair of long legs, always humming, very bubbly, always laughing with Sam, Claire, Diggory and the rest of the guys, a cool chick! She was someone who was fun to be around and it's lovely to see from the other messages here that she didn't change over the years and made such a positive impact on everyone who met her. I know words don't mean much at a time like this but I'm sending my love and sympathy to her family and those close to her." Nikki x

"I worked with Karolyn at Sky, and she was always so kind and helpful, such a beauty that has been taken well before her time. My father suffered the same illness and passed away two years ago, my sympathies are with Karolyn's family and friends and my thoughts go out to them at this tragic time. The news was relayed to me by colleagues at Sky, Karolyn was a popular member of a great team and will be truly missed. Heaven certainly has gained a shining beautiful bright star." RH

"I was so sorry to hear the sad news about Karolyn. I met her through a life-long friend Woody. Karolyn always had a smile on her face and was great fun to be with. I remember the great times we had together. She was a lovely girl and I shall really miss her." Justin C
