Carolyn Sue Hooper Lance

October 18, 1942 — December 31, 2012

Asheville Carolyn Sue Hooper Lance looked upon the beauty of Jesus when she took His right hand as she joined her parents, Bob and Pauline Hooper, in the Beautiful City, Dec. 31, 2012. God blessed Carolyn with many wonderful gifts: a passion for historical homes; an incredible artistic ability; the gift to play most any instrument by ear; a selfless, generous spirit; and an unwavering ability to connect with and honor people with different perspectives, regardless of their faith, race, ethnicity, or station in life. Her children, Leslie, Tracy, and Chip, and their spouses are doing their utmost to instill in their children the qualities and core values their momma embodied: honesty, integrity, compassion and most importantly, unconditional love. She demonstrated this unconditional love through a very special relationship she shared with her beloved sister and best friend, Mary Anne Rayburn. Carolyn's grandchildren, Brittany and Jay McGaha, DJ Hull-Ryde, and Reagan Lance, will be educated, thanks in part to their grandmother who valued education and had an unceasing love of learning. Her family, including her older brother, Bobby Hooper and all of Carolyn's wonderful nieces and nephews enjoyed untold special memories with her, which they continue to cherish. This special lady's family will receive family and friends Friday, Jan. 4, at 10 a.m. at Anders-Rice Funeral Home. A service honoring Carolyn's life will take place there at 11 a.m. A graveside service will follow immediately at Forest Lawn Memorial Park. In lieu of flowers, the family requests gifts in Carolyn's memory be made to Central Baptist Church, 100 Bobbie Ave., Greeneville, Tenn., 37743 to support foreign missions in Nepal. A Video Tribute will be available for a limited time. Click Here
