She attended Charleston parochial schools and graduated from Bishop England High School. Caroline studied voice under Vernon Weston and sang with the Charleston Choral Society under his direction. For fifty years, she was the lead soprano soloist with the choirs of St. Joseph's Catholic Church and the Cathedral of Saint John the Baptist Catholic Church. Although she was identified closely with choir work, she was also known for her accomplishments in musical theatre. Caroline appeared in over 25 Pilot Club Musicals as the lead soloist. Besides cherishing her grandchildren, she took much pride in her Atlanta Braves jacket autographed by Bobby Cox and John Smoltz and her signed Pavarotti picture that simply said, "Caroline, I will sing with you in heaven!"
