She was an active participant with Logan County 4-H Clubs and hosted the South Carolina delegation to the National 4-H Leaders Convention in Oklahoma in 2004. Over the years, Mrs. Carey baked many dozens of cookies for the Lunch on Noble program and spent many days as a volunteer at Camp Joy in the Abell community.
