Mark I am so sorry to hear of Carolyn's passing. I worked with her and we shared an office at GHS Home Health. We had so much fun. She loved all of you very much. I remember she was always planning what she and Michelle were going to do. She was a lovely lady. I was always kidding her that she never wore the same thing twice. She did her job and was liked by all. So sorry about Frank. I had no idea he had passed.

Mark,
I am so sorry to hear about the loss of your mother. She will be missed by many.
I can still see her and your dad cheering for us at our baseball games many years ago. Their support was a blessing to us all.
Sending thoughts and prayers to you and your family!

Mark, just this past Monday evening I was thinking of your mom and wondering if she was still alive. Well, I have my answer. I am so sorry for you and your children and your grandchildren. She was the most wonderful lady. I have such fond memories of her. There is not a birthday I celebrate that I do not remember the cake she had Frank bring to me for my 17th birthday. She just knew how to make a person feel special, loved, and honored. I can remember her saying in her gentle, lilting voice when things were a little less than peaceful (i.e., your dad was having a fit about something or another in his Fred fashion) "Life's just a bowl of cherries." or "Well, Fred, I declare." Please take care of yourself and know that if I did not live in the midwest, I would be there on Saturday. Know that I am with you all in spirit. May the Lord bless you and keep you and make his face to shine upon you; may He give you peace.
