Carolyn Plummer of Strafford, N.H. fell asleep in the Lord on Wednesday, December 27 after a courageous battle with cancer. Carolyn was born on March 24, 1956 in Melrose, Mass. She received her nursing degree in 1977 from Berkshire Community College and attended Berkshire Christian College where she met her husband.

Carolyn was an exceptional nurse, an example to young, an encouragement to old and a friend to all. She was dedicated to her profession, and her skill and knowledge were second to none. She was a registered nurse for 40 years, a CNOR and a member of AORN. She worked in the operating room at Wentworth Douglas Hospital in Dover, N.H. for 25 years and most recently at Concord Orthopaedic Surgery Center. She also held other positions over her career including school nurse in Somersworth, N.H., a nurse at Camp Brookwoods in Alton, N.H., and roles in other surgery centers, doctors offices and hospitals.

More than anything, Carolyn loved her children and grandchildren. She loved being a Mia and was so proud and happy to be a grandmother. Her favorite times were when all of her family could be together capturing the memories. She looked forward to family vacations at Newfound Lake, and cherished those moments.

Carolyn is survived by her husband Rev. Donald Plummer; daughter Christie and her husband Nathaniel Goodwin of Strafford; son Andrew and his wife Kim of Nashua; and six grandchildren Travis, Bentley, Adelaide, Shane, Caleb and Levi. Her parents Norman and Carol Small of Gilmanton; her brother Rev. Steven Small and wife Kelley of Bridgewater; and many nieces and nephews.

Carolyn loved the Lord, and we look forward to seeing her again. She will be sorely missed by all who knew and loved her.
