Larry and Family,
It has been many years since West German mission days and then having the privilege of knowing Carolyn - but for some reason today I was prompted to google 'Larry Thompson and Rexburg' and was shocked to read of Carolyn's passing. Please know that our thoughts and prayers are focused on your family at this time. May the Lord and the Holy Ghost abide with you.

Larry!
I've always loved you two so much, even though MHS decided t dispense with my services and this resulted in my departure from Rexburg. Now to read this without warning almost knocks me flat. May the Lord bless you and may the Holy Ghost do the same job for you that he did for me when I lost Shayne.

All the best, old friend.

Larry and Family:

We express our love to you on the passing of Carolyn, as well as at all other times. Even from here is Bulgaria, you are in our thoughts, hearts, and prayers.

A celebration on Saturday of Carolyn's life is most appropriate . . .we wish that we could be there.

Larry, thanks for talking to us on Wednesday evening. Hope that a telephone call from Bulgaria, using our Rexburg home number, wasn't too confusing. More on that later.

Again, our sympathies, personal sorrow, and prayers.

-Anne and Vic Forsnes
