Mom, I can't believe it has almost been 1 year since I've seen you. Time goes by too fast. I wish I can see you just one more time to give you a big hug & tell you how much I love you! You have no idea how much you are missed by all of us! I know you are in a better place but sometimes it is just so hard to believe still. I think about you all the time & love you so much! A huge hole in my heart will never be refilled, but i know it gets easier with time. Give Dad & everyone lots of hugs & kisses for me! Love your daughter,
-Nicole

I miss you very much and on this anniversary I pray the Lord is comforting all your children and their children who also miss you. I will always remember your laugh and your little giggle and the fun we had before you got very ill. My thoughts are always with you and family. I love you and miss you.

Mom,
I greatly miss you! I never thought this day would come. You were my best friend and I don't know who to talk too now. I know you are in a better place. We all love you.

I am so sorry to hear about the passing of Carol.
I meet Carol when she was here with her sister Diane this year she was doing very well and she looked very good.
May she rest in peace.

Carol, my Aunt, my Godmother, my friend. She always shared what little she had. She always lived with passion and fire. One always knew where they stood with her for she loved. She spoke her mind from her loving heart. Though she had a tough childhood she found happiness in family, friends, and in living life to it's fullest. She didn't climb Mount Everest or run a Marathon but her life was equally satisfying to her. She just loved people even if you were "full of it" she had room in her heart to love you too. This I know about my Aunt. I will miss her dearly.

Writing can sometimes be difficult. You always have so many thoughts and they just don't seem to transfer well into words. My sincere sympathy to the beautiful daughters of Carol as well as my deepest sympathy to Carol's loving sisters. I know that Carol will truly be missed by many, but her departure surely leaves Diane with an empty heart. Carol will be remembered by her wonderful giggle, her beautiful smile and the love she had for her family. May she enjoy the rest of her heavenly life with her beloved husband, and her parents.

Carol you were our friend and our neighbor for 38 short years. We shared a variety of ups and downs. Good times and sad times and all the times in between. You have touched our lives and you will remain in our hearts forever.

The my family,
Isaiah 41:10.
I loved my dear sister and will surely miss her very very much. My loss is great but I hope she will say to my Lord that her little sister tried to make her last days better and he will approve.
your loving sister,
Diane

May Carol finally rest in peace and live in a happier place with no more suffering. Our condolences to the family, especially Diane and Kelly who have done so much for Carol and brought a lot of joy in her life. We are sure glad we got a chance to see Carol and spend a little quality time with her in California last year. May she rest in peace.
