D. Carlene (Tolin) Woodyard, age 90, of Canal Winchester, OH, died March 31, 2025. She was born in Somerville, MA to the late Berla M. (Bonness) and George C. Tolin on June 10, 1934. A graduate of Somerville High School, she briefly attended Boston College before working as a switchboard operator for the New England Telephone Company. Although she lived most of her adult life in central Ohio, she stayed true to her New England roots, returning regularly to visit family in the Boston area and vacationing each summer on Mount Desert Island, ME. A descendant of the pilgrim Edward Doty and a member of the Mayflower Society, she was an avid reader and film history buff who also loved hiking, gardening, seafood, and a good cup of tea.

Survived by siblings Paul (Patty) St. Germaine and Lorraine (Robert) Bohleen; children Christopher (Janet) Woodyard and Kerith (Ryan) Woodyard; grandchildren Ashley (Justin), Alex, and Aspen (Josh); great-grandsons Keagan and Brixton; brothers-in-law Thomas (Patricia Greiner) and Timothy (Nancy) Woodyard; cousin Carlene (Bonness) Bryant; and several nieces, nephews, cousins, and other relations.
