Rest easy in heaven, Carol. We are very sorry things turned out the way they did - it definitely was not what we through would happen. But, you will not be forgotten. Dad will always remember you. He misses you very much already. Keep "holding" his hands through this, because he is going to need all the support he can get in the upcoming months. You both were together for so long - over 30 years - so this will take some time for him to heal. But, know that he loves you still and always will. We will make sure to be there for him through all of this and to make things right again. Thank you for being a good person to us throughout the years as well. You did not have to do anything for us, but you and dad helped us in many ways, and we appreciate it more than you may have ever know. Many should learn from you that lesson of kindness, grace, and support for one another. Kara Grace says to tell you she loves you and that she misses her Gramma Carol!
