These last few years were rough on my grandmother (mom). She struggled with a lot of medical complications. It was good to spend time with her last week and see her without tubes stuck in her. She is now with my grandad, get ready grandad, and Sherry and many of her friends that passed before her. I’m sure she’s comfortable at last. I miss you already, its so hard to imagine you not here.

Our hearts are very saddened by the loss of Carolyn and even more broken by the fact that we are unable to be with the family at this time. We are so very thankful though that we did get to see her before she became so very ill. Please know that we are thinking of you and holding you close in our hearts. Lots of love to each and every one of you.
My thoughts and prayers to Carolyn’s family at this sad time.
RIP Carolyn, fly with the angels

I am so very sorry to hear about Carolyn. She had such a courageous fight. I wlll never forget seeing Carolyn and Russell in Orlando a few years ago. They were so special to Shirley, Gene and me and they will be missed by all. They stayed with me in 2002 when Julie was married and it was a special time for all of us. Love and prayers to all of the family,
Cousin Becky
