It is with heavy hearts and profound sadness that we announce the passing of Carolyn Diane English, a beloved mother, grandmother, fiancée, and friend. Born on September 7, 1957, in Itta Bena, Mississippi, Carolyn left this world peacefully on September 28, 2026, after a brief illness.
Carolyn was the cherished daughter of Richard and Jacqueline English. She was predeceased by her loving parents and her dear brothers, Gordon and Richard English, whose memories she held close to her heart.
As a devoted mother, Carolyns greatest joy in life was her family. She is survived by her three children, Joey English and wife Heather, Brandi Harvey and husband Joshua, and Rhiannon English, who were important in her life. Carolyns legacy lives on in her ten adored grandchildren: Sean, Adam, Ashley, Logan, Lawton, Madison, Ella, Alexis, and Aiden. Each grandchild was a precious gift to her, and she took immense pride and joy in their lives and achievements. She is also survived by her uncle and aunt, Cassy and Pat Singleton. Carolyn was engaged for years to her loving fiancée, Steve Huntley. Their bond was a source of strength and happiness, and together they shared countless memories, laughter, and love that will forever be cherished.
Throughout her life, Carolyn dedicated herself to being a homemaker. She was known for her friendship and smile.
In honoring Carolyns wishes and spirit, the family has decided not to hold a formal memorial service. Instead, they ask that all who knew and loved her celebrate her life by remembering Carolyn as she lived. For those who wish to honor Carolyns memory, the family kindly suggests making a donation to a charity of your choice. This gesture will continue her legacy of kindness and compassion. As we remember Carolyn Diane English, let us hold close the love she shared and the lives she touched. May her spirit live on in the hearts of all who were fortunate enough to know her.
