Carol Gwyn Obituary
Jean lived in many places throughout her life, including Lawrence, KS, Albuquerque, NM, and Danville, CA. She had a larger than life personality and was a fantastic cook. Jean enjoyed playing bridge, reading, and going to Cripple Creek to play the slot machines.
Jean is preceded in death by her father and mother, Arleigh and Ruth Carlton, her siblings Evelyn Porter, Joseph Carlton, Robert Carlton, Johnny Carlton, and her grandson, Hunter Gwyn. She is survived by her husband, Charles Gwyn, her children Kevin, Karen, and Bryan, daughter-in-law Kristin, and grandchildren Jordan, Courtney, Lauren, and Lexie.
A celebration of Jean's life will be held sometime in the future at her favorite place, Santuario de Chimayo in Chimayo, NM.

Dear Chuck, Kevin, Karen, Brian, and family, Cyndie and I and the rest of our 14 person family pray and hope all of you can deal with this loss. I have only have fond memories of your family and I many years ago. I cannot let this pass by without reaching out to you and express how I fell about your family directly, and the loss of
Jeannie. Please Gwynn family always reach out to us if you need to. Jeannie always treated me as an important person in her life as well as you Chuck and kids. Jeannie always wanted to take on the one arm bandi slot machines with Cyndie and I in Vegas. Don't think for a moment that I do not remember really good times in the past with the entire family and my relatives. We love all of you and hope and pray for the best for you and your road ahead- Sincerely Bill & Cyndie Niemeyer and our Famly - love always - Bill & Cyndie
