I remember dinner at the "Joint" with Shelly, you and Barbara, where you shared the greatest joy in your life was putting a smile on Barbara's face. We are all blessed to have been a part of your life.

Dear Carin & Debbie,

For me, what comes to mind is the open display of love and affection your dad and mom shared for one another. As a little girl, hanging over at your house very often, I can still remember this. It left a beautiful memory for me. Now, I believe that your dad is smiling, that same smile I remember,as he has his arms wrapped around your mom this very moment.

Dear Carin and Debbie,
I only have the best memories of your beautiful, beautiful mom and your dad who worshiped and adored her and you girls. They both were bright lights who always made me laugh - nothing was more fun than lunching with Barbara or having dinner at their house Thanksgiving or Sunday nights at The Joint. Hang onto the many wonderful memories - there were so many.
Love,
Susan
