In Memoriam
Carolyn henry druffel
Carolyn is the patroness and heavenly advocate for the Mamas in Spirit community. Carolyn said “yes” to being part of the Mamas in Spirit Team before her illness progressed and she went home to be with our loving God. Carolyn’s witness during her lifetime reflects the hopes for the Mamas in Spirit community: to know we are beloved daughters of God, to have rich lives of prayer and to live our callings.
Carolyn and host Lindy made a quick plan to record a podcast once Carolyn knew she had just days more on earth. This was the first podcast Lindy ever recorded holding the hands of her beloved friend and mentor.
Carolyn was a prayer warrior and spent her days making rosaries, chaplets and other religious jewelry. Carolyn changed many lives by encouraging others to deeper relationship with God through daily prayer and participation in the sacraments—Carolyn’s sacramental life transformed her and she emanated the joy, pure heart and sacrificial love of our Blessed Mother Mary. Carolyn is a witness of the grace of God at work when we give our lives and hearts completely to God.

Sweet Carolyn, pray for us.
