Obituary For Caylee Ann Carlson

With extreme sadness, we announce the passing of our beloved daughter Caylee Ann Carlson of Alto, Georgia. She passed away on Wednesday, January 24, 2024 surrounded by her family at our home. At the age of 22, Caylee had bravely fought MDS/Leukemia cancer for two years.

Caylee was born October 20, 2001 in New Haven, CT. Caylee and her mom moved to Georgia in 2012 where she finished growing up and graduating from Habersham Central High School in 2020. She was beloved by her classmates, teachers, and all the people that met her. She had a special love for all her farm animals, especially her goats! She loved the Great Smoky Mountains, Tybee Island, enjoyed all things outdoors and especially loved sunflowers and roses. Caylee had a special bond with her brother and sister, they were her world. Caylee you will be missed by all. “The flower that follows the sun does so even on cloudy days”-Robert Leighton

Caylee’s love of life was beautiful. She had such a pure heart, loved everyone she came in contact with. Her smile was so contagious. Her untainted view of the world made her feel that everything was wonderful and perfect! Even on her darkest days, she stood tall like a sunflower. If you had met our beautiful girl, you had a friend for life!
