Nancy and family:
I was so sorry to hear about Carol, we attended school together in New London. Nancy and I were good friends also. I want to let you know that I will keep all of Carols family in my thoughts and prayers.
Dear Joe and all the family,
We miss Carol so much-there is a void in our hearts that only the comfort of the Lord can fill.
We know that Carol is rejoicing with all who have gone before her, and that she has been made perfect through the sacrifice of our Lord and Savior Christ Jesus.
Carol made every family gathering so much fun-she was always the life of the party, and all the kids loved her, because they knew she loved them.
I treasure the Easter card Carol sent me this past Easter…with the two rabbits-she knew I loved the bunnies and always tried to send a card with that theme.
Her message in the card was: “He is risen, how awesome a God we serve.”
God Bless and comfort all her family members.
Love,
Kathy and Forrest Butler
