Dear Steve, Steve Jr. and Rachel,

As I drove to work this morning and witnessed the beautiful sunrise; all I could think about was Carol. I know she is healthy and with God now, seeing first hand all the beauty of the heavens and its glory. I hope that in time you will feel the comfort of her peace in heaven and know that she will always be in your hearts.

Sincerely,

To Steve Sr., Rachel and Steve Jr. - I was a friend to your Mom thru my sister, Rosemary Barton, who was one of Carol's best friends. Carol was a wonderfully warm person and had the most beautiful eyes and smile. I was lucky to have known her and she will be missed by many.
Your love,as well as the loving thoughts of all of her friends, surely comforted her as she battled her illness.
May she rest in peace.

My Dearest Piti, thank you for 35 years of friendship. I have so many wonderful memories. You were the strongest person I ever met. You were as beautiful on the inside as you were on the outside. I was so honored to be your friend. I thank God for your beautiful children Rachel and Steve...I know you were so very proud of them. With those two there will always be a piece of you here on earth. My only solace is that you are with your Dad and Grandma in heaven. I loved making you laugh and can still hear your laughter and see your radiant smile. I miss you so very much. Rest in peace my girlfriend. I love you!
