  Mr. KELLY of Mississippi. Madam Speaker, I rise today to celebrate 
the life of Carolyn Clayton who passed away Saturday, September 11 at 
the Baptist Memorial Hospital in New Albany. I join her family, 
friends, and loved ones in mourning her loss.
  Carolyn was born on February 14, 1941 to Marlin and Maggie Curtis 
Evans. She worked at the Lee County Chancery Clerk's Office. She found 
joy in attending yard sales, gardening, and spending time with family.
  Carolyn was the founder of the nonprofit organization, Survival 
Incorporated. The organization works to advocate for the victims of 
violent crimes across the state of Mississippi. She was awarded Victims 
Advocate of the Year.
  Carolyn was married for 58 years to her husband, Joe, who passed away 
two months prior. Left to cherish her memory are her sons, Brad and 
Rob; grandchildren, Nikki, Kattie, Jack and Carson.
  I am grateful for Mrs. Clayton's lifetime of service to the state of 
Mississippi.
