Carolyn Kuchinski Obituary

Published by Legacy Remembers on Jan. 17, 2018.

Carolyn Mary (Horton) Kuchinski, 80 last of North Fort Myers, FL went to
her heavenly reward on January 10, 2018 while residing at the SECU
Hospice House In Smithfield North Carolina.

Beloved widow of Paul J Kuchinski, Sr, Carolyn was born on July 3, 1937
at home in China Grove, NC to Esther Pauline Cook and James Everett
Horton. Along with her siblings, she attended the local schools and Baptist
Church of China Grove.

Prior to making her last home in North Fort Myers, Florida, Carolyn
travelled as far west as Ohio and as far north to Maryland holding may
service-oriented jobs while raising children.

Living in Florida, Carolyn found her passion for church missions including
her work with teenagers and young babies in the nursery. Her mission trips
had her travelling to Haiti, Peru and Brazil to work at Church orphanages.
Her most precious task was to rock the babies.

Carolyn would want to give thanks to her extremely caring neighbors Janet
and Ronald Pica of Lazy Days Park in North Fort Myers, FL who managed
her care and affairs as her health declined. Carolyn's last caregiver was her
step-daughter Catherine K. McCormick who also extends sincere
appreciation for the kind care Carolyn received at both the UNC
Hillsborough Geriatric Hospital and the Smithfield SECU Hospice House.

Those who predeceased Carolyn include her spouse, Paul J. Kuchinski, Sr.,
her infant son Tommy, her parents and her sister Kathleen (Katie).

She is survived by her son, James Joseph Root of Georgia, a daughter, Renee
Sharon Johnson of Texas, and son Lamar Mayson Ware,III of Maryland
along with 7 grandchildren and several great-grandchildren.

Tribute to Carolyn's good life and deeds will be given during a service
conducted by Pastor Matt Booher of the Emmanuel Baptist Church in Fort
Myers, FL and her remains will rest with Paul in Massachusetts.
