Carolyn Janet Morten, 69, of Larimore, ND, loving wife, mother, grandmother and sister entered into the arms of Jesus at 1:50pm on December 31, 2011 surrounded by her loving family. Philippians 1:21 "For to me, to live is Christ, and to die is gain, to be absent from the body is to be home with the Lord." Carolyn was born in Northwood, ND to her parents, Reuben C. and Idella J.
