Caroline (Gavin) Clinton

Caroline Marie (Gavin) Clinton, age 47, of Clarkesville, passed away Tuesday, June 3, 2025.

Caroline was born in Boston where she later attended Harvard University as an Economics major.  

Not only was she academically brilliant, she had an artistic flare that could be seen in the poetry she enjoyed writing.  

She loved spending time outdoors, and Caroline found solace in hiking.  

Caroline radiated joy and had a calming spirit that others craved to be around.  She had a glow that would light up any room she entered and she was proudly the heart of their home.

She is survived by her husband, Robert Harold Clinton III; seven children, Alexander Gavin-Rivera, Mariana Gavin-Rivera, Robert Harold Clinton IV “Rocky,” Carrie Clinton, Tyler Clinton, Nicholas Clinton, and Alena Clinton; and mother, Carole Simone. 

She was preceded in death by her father, Fred Gavin III.

Funeral services will take place at 12 noon, Thursday, June 12, 2025 in the Chapel of Hillside Memorial Chapel with Reverend Richard Clinton officiating.  Interment will follow in Hillside Gardens Cemetery.  

The family will receive friends one hour prior to the service at the funeral home.
