Carolyn Sue (Cozad) May of Columbus, passed away at home, on Thursday, June 24, 2021, surrounded by her loving family. Carolyn was born, August 7, 1947, and graduated from South High School. After graduating, she became a certified beautician. Next, Carolyn worked most of her career as a supervisor at Kauffman-Lattimer/Amerisource. Carolyn retired from Nationwide Insurance to provide daycare for her great-grandchildren. This job was the one she found most fulfilling, as Carolyn was a giver, caretaker and her family was always her priority. She loved them all beyond measure. Among Carolyn's many superpowers, it was her empathy, compassion, love, and selflessness that made the world a better place. Words cannot adequately express what it felt like to be loved by Carol May. Those who were loved by her, know this to be true.
